High Stakes Interactions definition

High Stakes Interactions are defined as those in which the risks of miscommunication or misunderstanding are high and the consequences of miscommunications may have serious repercussions for inmates. High Stakes Interactions include: medical care and appointments, including dental, vision, audiological, mental health care and appointments, and include both individual therapy and group counseling sessions (unless the medical care or appointment is routine and does not involve substantial conversation, for example, blood work for routine lab tests or regular allergy shots); disciplinary investigations and disciplinary hearings; educational programs, specific training sessions and general educational opportunities that include a verbal component; vocational programs that include a verbal component; transfer and classification meetings; meetings with the Facility ADA Coordinator to discuss Auxiliary Aids and Services in the development of the inmate’s Communication Plan.

  • Synchronous interaction means a real-time interaction between a patient and a health care provider for telehealth located at a distant site.

  • Digital Cross Connect System or "DCS" is a function which provides automated Cross Connection of Digital Signal Level 0 (DS0) or higher transmission bit rate digital channels within physical interface facilities. Types of DCS include but are not limited to DCS 1/0s, DCS 3/1s, and DCS 3/3s, where the nomenclature 1/0 denotes interfaces typically at the DS1 rate or greater with Cross Connection typically at the DS0 rate. This same nomenclature, at the appropriate rate substitution, extends to the other types of DCS specifically cited as 3/1 and 3/3. Types of DCS that cross connect Synchronous Transport Signal level 1 (STS-1 s) or other Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) signals (e.g., STS-3) are also DCS, although not denoted by this same type of nomenclature. DCS may provide the functionality of more than one of the aforementioned DCS types (e.g., DCS 3/3/1 which combines functionality of DCS 3/3 and DCS 3/1). For such DCS, the requirements will be, at least, the aggregation of requirements on the "component" DCS. In locations where automated Cross Connection capability does not exist, DCS will be defined as the combination of the functionality provided by a Digital Signal Cross Connect (DSX) or Light Guide Cross Connect (LGX) patch panels and D4 channel banks or other DS0 and above multiplexing equipment used to provide the function of a manual Cross Connection. Interconnection is between a DSX or LGX to a Switch, another Cross Connection, or other service platform device.
