Like many young Latinos who were raised in Kansas in multilingual families, Iván García-Mijares goes with his mom to all her medical appointments and interprets conversations between his mom and the doctors. This is because, despite the existence of federal legislation that requires the provision of professional interpreting services and strongly advises against the use of family members as interpreters, especially minors (see Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act), his mother’s clinic has never offered them interpretation services when he is present. In this video, Iván shares an experience when he had to interpret very serious news to from the doctor to his mom, and he begs healthcare institutions in Kansas to develop a better system to ensure that they are providing professional interpretation services.
