Abstract

Language barriers may prevent non-English-speaking populations from accessing healthcare services and present a significant threat to the health of Latino populations. Engagement of language interpreters in PCOR/CER is essential to reducing this threat. This project's enhancement will develop a virtual interactive workshop on PCOR/CER language access research on COVID-19. The workshop will focus on principles and strategies of stakeholder engagement, methodological considerations in PCOR/CER, and topics and questions in language access research in the times of COVID-19. The team will also re-engage healthcare interpreters who participated in a webinar held during the original project and will conduct a virtual discussion on COVID-19's impact on the healthcare interpreting profession.
