Description: Global migration continues to increase and with it comes increasing linguistic diversity. This presents obvious challenges for both healthcare provider and patient and the chapters in this volume represent a range of international perspectives on language barriers in health care. A variety of factors influence the best ways of approaching and overcoming these language barriers including cultural geographical political and practical considerations and as a result a range of approaches and solutions are suggested and discussed. The authors in this volume discuss a wide range of countries and languages and cover issues that will be familiar to all healthcare practitioners including the role of informal interpreters interpreting in a clinical setting bilingual healthcare practitioners and working with languages with comparatively small numbers of speakers.
