Current Initiatives
Medical interpreters, like other members of the patient care team, encounter multiple instances of ethical and professional dilemmas during their day-to-day practice. CCHI is managing the Repository of Critical Incident Reports (CIRs) to offer a mechanism for sharing such instances in a systemic and public manner. We encourage all medical interpreters, managers of language services, and interpreter educators to submit CIRs for public review and consideration.

National Healthcare Interpreter Registry
Search this National Registry of CCHI-certified medical interpreters and applicants who are in the process of obtaining certification. This Registry is intended for credential verification purposes. Per CCHI’s privacy policy, certificants and applicants choose if they wish to display their email address in the Registry; CCHI respects their decision.
