Communication
Soft skills, or people skills, combined with cognitive and psychomotor skills, are vitally important in the medical office. The medical assistant functions within a system, an organized hierarchy of professionals with established policies and procedures. It is important for the medical assistant to communicate well with the patients, physicians, and coworkers. Good communication involves active listening, seeking first to understand then speaking to be understood, and effective writing. Critical thinking, another key professional skill, involves distinguishing fact from opinion and making good value judgments. Teamwork is essential in the medical office where a diversity of clients, coworkers, and needs may create conflicts. Medical assistants must prioritize tasks and manage time well. Stress management for patients and medical office employees is also important. Medical careers can create stress for health care workers, so it is important to know how to reduce stress. Time management is critical for the office to operate well. Urgent tasks are not necessarily important tasks. A to-do list can help you prioritize tasks. Persistence is also important in the medical office. The medical assistant may need to focus on a task several times to be thorough and see it through to completion. Lifelong learning is the responsibility of the medical assistant, because new breakthroughs and treatments are perpetually being developed in medicine.
