The professionals of Integrity Interpreting ease these challenges for effective and proper mental health services.
ORAL INTERPRETING/ TRANSLITERATING
Oral transliteration, also known as oral interpretation, is used to aid in communication between Deaf or hard of hearing individuals. Oral transliterators use speech and speechreading as conveyance between the communicating individuals. Integrity Interpreting professionals silently mouth sentences to the deaf or hard of hearing person, and will smartly adjust words or phrases to those that are more easily speechread. Oral transliterators may also use voice for speakers who use none, or for those whose voices are otherwise difficult for listeners to comprehend.
