#31.1
“How do the objective and the definition contradict or support each other”
The objective and the definition both support the health and safety of all parties involved. However, the definition exposes how the interpreter can leave their impartial role. In the end, both meanings highlight the importance of speaking up when someone is in danger.

#31.2
“What is the difference between impartiality and indifference?”
Impartiality means neutrality; you treat everyone equally and do not take sides. Indifference means you lack interest or sympathy; you can still be neutral but its because you do not care at all.

#32.1
“What should the interpreter do? To whom should she appeal?”
The interpreter should consider if anyone’s safety, health, or dignity is at risk. In this case, the mother’s dignity could be at risk; she deserves to know what is wrong with her daughter and what type of procedure she will go through. Also, if the mother does not know about the procedure, the doctors could miss out on any important information that can lead to the daughter being at risk. For example, maybe the mother knows her daughter has some problems when under anesthesia, or she could have a previous surgery that the doctor should know about.

31.1
How do the objective and the definition contradict or support each other?
– Both the objective and the dictionary definition support each other because they allude to the interpreter doing something. The definition does not mention that the interpreter serves the patient. The definition does explain what advocating is doing, while the objective fails to mention what exactly the interpreter is doing, it’s more ambiguous while, the objective is specifically stating that it is an action that supersedes the interpreter’s role.

31.2
What is the difference between impartiality and indifference?
– The difference between impartiality and indifference is that impartiality stems from being unbiased to something. When someone is impartial to something, they make a conscious decision not to pick a side. Being indifferent to something is not a conscious effort to not pick a side, but it’s rather that you don’t care about either side.

32.2
– What should the interpreter do? To whom could she appeal?
– The interpreter needs to advocate for the patient and tell everyone in the room that the interpreter has something to say. Then let them know that because they can’t understand anything, they will talk to another healthcare professional to address the irresponsibility of the medic. Then the interpreter will address the medic about the situation. Then the interpreter will ask the patient if they would like to have the interpreter to leave the session and find help or someone who can direct the medic. If the patient says yes, then the interpreter will go get help from another physician or a higher authority. If the patient says no, the interpreter must respect that decision
