Project Overview: The County of San Diego Health and Human Services Public Health Services (SDHHS) serves the urban, suburban, and rural populations of metro San Diego. SDHHS was a beta test site for the Public Health Accreditation Board’s (PHAB’s) voluntary national accreditation program in 2010. As part of the beta test process, sites completed a QI project to address an area identified through their self-assessment. SDHHS’s goal was to adapt a formal language interpretation policy for public health centers and clinics and increase staff knowledge of providing services to non-English speaking clients.
