🌏Translating and Interpreting Service (TIS National)
Navigating a breast cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming, especially when English isn't your first language. TIS National is a government-funded interpreting service that helps people who are not confident speaking English communicate with healthcare providers, government services, and other organisations. Interpreters are available in hundreds of languages, helping people access information and services more confidently and independently. When attending medical appointments, understanding treatment options and asking questions is incredibly important. If language is a barrier, you have the right to ask whether an interpreter can be arranged. Professional interpreters can help ensure you receive clear and accurate information about your care. 📞 TIS National: 13 14 50 🔗 Learn more: https://www.tisnational.gov.au/ 💬 We'd love to hear from you: Have you used an interpreter during your cancer experience?
