Q2. What is the most challenging part of being a bilingual home visitor?

<Chaw Chaw>

Being a bilingual home visitor, the most challenging part for me is when I have to be a culture broker for some families. When the family is not engaged with other services such as their children are in need of special needs, and the family cancel the service and decline the service. For example, I have a family who are referred from health department. They need the service for speech therapy for the child and she needs therapy for herself for mental health but she cancel all the services that she get and she just said, “I just want you alone to come and visit me and I don’t want other service.” Then I feel like oh, I can not do you by yourself. I need to come with a specialist and refer her to other service. But she still declined that. She doesn’t want anybody to come to see her except me.
