Because a sign language interpreter has to hear the speech, understand it, and translate it into sign language, all while following along, speech that moves too quickly adds an extra burden.
I think this would be something that gets learned over time as you become more experienced as an interpreter.

Methods
I like how they describe the methods used to gain this information and how wide the year span was. To show to changes, or lack thereof, i thought was interesting enough to note.

Although technical assistance services are offered to DHH people who can afford them, many DHH patients still report that it is not possible to reach their HCP to make appointments or communicate by more accessible methods like email.13
Where can you access something like a TTY/TDD? Is it something the Deaf person has to buy or are there public options?
-
Progress has been made toward improving access to medical care in the human health field; however, the veterinary field has not yet implemented similar standards
Its not something people think about when it comes to accessibility.

O’Dell also cites a critical issue with YouTube’s automatic caption feature, which replaces any swear word with “[__].”
I feel like this needs to be talked about more. This happens with some cable TV captions also I've noticed. Deaf people should have access to everything not just what other people want them to have access to. And you can't even blame it on "its so children don't read something they shouldn't". It's being put onto TV where any amount of kids can hear it, it makes no sense why it has to be censored from the CC.

Mainstream media outlets and creators often upload content without captions,” O’Dell told InclusionHub. “Or they do, but they only last for the first few seconds
Most platforms have a closed captioning option you can select. While its not always the most accurate, it is a thing and not something the creator has to always add.

Our Patient Advocacy and Patient Experience teams are aware of concerns regarding these services, had meetings with various stakeholders, and changed our procedure across all hospitals accordingly for individuals to be able to request in-person translation services.
I like how people actually worked to implement things that would help based off of concerns that were brought to their attention.

People and advocates in the deaf community
I wish we had more opinions in this rather than just Sean Gerlis and Robert Russell.

We are also proud to participate in the Rockland Deafness Task Force to stay connected to the needs of this community as we recognize the importance of effective communication and remain committed to providing accessible, patient-centered care that respects each patient’s communication needs and preferences."
I really like how they want to stay up-to-date on what the community wants/needs are. Because as things change so might the needs of interpreting services. This is something I feel like Fairbanks, AK doesn't do much/at all.

despite requests for accommodations.
Who were the requests made to?
