InterpretersLive :: Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust

You can use InterpretersLive to talk with a patient who uses British Sign Language (BSL).

This service can help when a face-to-face interpreter is not available, for example:

when you are working in the community
during home visits
during an emergency or crisis
when working with street triage teams

InterpretersLive lets you speak to a qualified BSL interpreter by video. The interpreter helps you and the patient understand each other. This can help you talk with the patient.
