Telephone Interpretation

WHEN & WHY USE OVER-THE-PHONE INTERPRETING?

OPI is ideal for short encounters such as arranging appointments, brief follow-ups, simple inquiries, and emergency situations while an on-site interpreter is on the way. For this reason, it’s crucial you contact skilled interpreters to ensure accuracy. OPI is not recommended for lengthy interactions, particularly if important, sensitive, or confidential issues are being discussed, and an understanding of non-verbal expressions is important.
