Why are interpreters an important part of modern healthcare provision? In today's society, there is an increasing need for mental health professionals to work with interpreters, yet coverage of this subject in the existing literature is scarce. Working with Interpreters in Mental Health gives an insight into the issues and problems of professionals working with interpreters in the mental health field. Informed by theoretical, research and practice considerations, Working with Interpreters in Mental Health helps practitioners to develop better ways of helping service users who need an interpreter. Combining contributions from a number of different disciplines, this book discusses: * interpreters in medical consultations * issues of language provision in health care services * the application of theoretical frameworks to the work with interpreters * the work of interpreters in a variety of practical settings. Whilst the focus the placed within a mental health context, many of the issues raised apply equally to other context where interpreters are needed. This book will be invaluable for practitioners of psychology, psychiatry, social work and other health professionals.

Exploring the key issues around anti-discriminatory practice for
professionals working in mental health services, this book looks at
ways to improve the health and social care of older people from
minority and excluded communities. The chapters explore the issues
involved in working with individuals from a range of minority
groups, such as LGBT people, people with learning disabilities,
people from black and minority ethnic communities, homeless people
and people with dementia. The chapters cover important theory and
research into discrimination, ageing and identity. Contributions
from experts in the fields of mental health and working with
minority groups provide practical insights into developing
anti-discriminatory practice.There is also practical advice on
culturally appropriate support for carers, cultural competency in
end of life care, working with interpreters, and celebrating
diversity, accompanied by supporting practical resources. This
comprehensive book will provide mental health practitioners and
students with an essential understanding of anti-discriminatory
practice.
This book unravels the mental health challenges of the migrants and
the socio economic and cultural conditions that bear on the mental
well being. In addition, it covers the measures of intervention
that can help the migrants maintain or restore their mental well
being. Research included in the book is timely given that there is
ever increasing mobility of people which on one hand has led to
better livelihoods, but on the other has created conditions of
stress for the migrants and their families. As migrants are often
found to be hesitant of using the health care facilities in the new
place which may be due to the lack of awareness, this book
elaborates on the health care facilities, cost issues, stigma, and
several other factors.
