Samuel is a 25-year-old male from a religious background that does not believe in health care. He is also from a non-English speaking background and has very limited skills in the English language. Although Samuel has had a severe stomach ache for the past month, he is determined not to seek any medical assistance. He attends an appointment with you, accompanied by his tutor from the local community house learning centre. Samuel is observed to be reluctant to be in the appointment. The tutor is observed to be concerned and worried over Samuel's well-being. The tutor informs you that Samuel is living in extremely overcrowded conditions with 10 other people in a 2-bedroom flat and she feels concerned that Samuel will face eviction shortly. The tutor states to you she will interpret for Samuel and that there "is no need to phone the interpreter services".
