This is a summary of the report “Promoting the engagement of interpreters in Victorian health services” by the Victorian Foundation for Survivors of Torture (Foundation House). The report documents findings from a two year study that was undertaken in response to regular reports from clients with low English proficiency about not being provided with a credentialled interpreter when accessing health care. Reports from other sources indicate that the issue is widespread and longstanding in Victoria and nationally.
