Mentor: Dr Uldis Ozolins
Your mentor Dr Uldis Ozolins has been a practitioner researcher, teacher and author in interpreting and translation for several decades and is well known in interpreting circles in Australia and internationally. He has worked closely with All Graduates in training and professional development.
In 2018, Melbourne Health (Royal Melbourne Hospital [RMH]) expanded its use of video interpreting to facilitate telehealth consultations with multicultural patients. The initiative was supported under the Department of Health and Human Services – Language Services Innovation Grants program It followed research published in 2015[1] by Dr Thomas Schulz, Infectious Diseases Physician at RMH, which showed that patients from culturally and linguistically diverse communities preferred accessing interpreters via video conferencing rather than telephone, in situations when onsite interpreting was not possible.
