TLS News – August

On the ground training delivered to maternity and labour ward staff

Communication with healthcare professionals when preparing for and giving birth is vital for mums’ and babies’ health outcomes.

TLS delivered on the ground training to at least 60 staff members at Queen’s Hospital, showing them how to access our on-demand services quickly and easily via PRISM. Four virtual sessions were then offered to 32 staff who were unable to attend in person.

PRISM is our dedicated device for accessing remote interpreting services in clinical settings. It has been designed by us to make our services as easy to use and accessible as possible, both for NHS staff and patients. It provides a screen on a fully articulating wheeled stand, through which both video and telephone services can be accessed quickly and with a minimum of fuss. It can be moved to wherever required in the hospital and placed into the optimum position between a patient and clinician during a consultation.
