Communication Skills




As a medical professional, you will be responsible for answering the telephone and the call light. It may seem like a small task, but it is one of the most critical aspects of your job. You don't want to be that person who lets the telephone or call light ring repeatedly before picking up. That's not a good look.


Be sure to answer the phone and call light promptly and confidently. Speaking clearly and confidently is key. If you have an accent, speak slower; if you tend to talk fast, slow down. Adjusting your speaking to ensure that the patients and their families can hear and understand you is essential.


Remember, the telephone and call light are a direct line to providing exceptional patient care, so take it seriously.
