I saw that the translators were giving the cdl licensees answers at the dmv.

I was told that local hospitals passed many foreigners as nurses aids and as nurses so the hospitals would have translators on all shifts and to stop paying for government required translators at 70 to 125 dollars an hour.

I was told that the aids were unqualified and uninterested. The LCSW who told me this realized how bad it sounded after she spoke.

I am so ashamed of our country.

We use a virtual site translator and nurses are using google translate on our smart phones. We have need for mostly Spanish translation services. The Google translation features are generally easier and more “Johnny on the Spot” for our needs and the patient needs and can be type text query with reply type text or audible reply with text. The Spnish speakers generally are smart phone literate and can type spanish to english.
