1. Brief information about being a doctor…

2. What are the day to day activities of being a doctor?? If I want to be a doctor I will have to work long hours, at all times of day and night. About 60 hours a week. I will also have to rush because there is always an emergency. I will have to deal with infections and viruses, and gross things like blood.

3. The essentials needed are…… 1 Verbal communication skills. A doctor needs to be able to speak clearly, hear well and observe patients to effectively diagnose their ailments. 2 Motor skills. Doctors need to have a high degree of hand-eye skills to be able to safely and effectively examine patients, use instruments like the sphygmomanometer, stethoscope, otoscope and ophthalmoscope, as well as a wide range of diagnostic equipment. 3 Intellectual skills. As a doctor, you’ll need to be able to calculate, analyze, and quantify information vital to the health care of your patients. Problem-solving must be done in a timely fashion, and under sometimes stressful conditions. 4 Social skills. To effectively care for patients, doctors must be emotionally healthy, mature, sensitive and honest. 5 Observational skills. To work effectively as a doctor, you’ll need to be able to observe demonstrations in complex procedures by teachers and other physicians, and accurately observe patients so that you can assess and evaluate patients’ conditions.

4. 6 Physical skills. Healthcare involves a lot of walking and standing, and you’ll sometimes be required to maneuver patients in or out of bed, into chairs, onto gurneys and even up off the floor. 7 Written skills. Doctors must be able to note patient information on charts, make notes about medications and patient behavior, leave easy-to-comprehend notes for nurses, pharmacists and aides, and write detailed care plans for patients. 8 Computer skills. Your schooling will involve a certain degree of computer use in labs and when writing papers. 9 Continuing education skills. The knowledge of your profession won't stop when you graduate from medical school. 10 Business skills. Whether you choose to practice in a hospital or a private care setting, your ability to understand basic business procedures is essential, especially in light of the paperwork required by the insurance industry. If I have these skills, then I will be a great doctor……

5. Will I be able to get it??? If I study hard and get good marks I can get any job I want. Some people say that being a doctor takes a lot of studying and many years, and at the same time it is a beautiful job, so if I want it I will have to work hard to get it and hope to be a great doctor….. And who knows maybe, in the future, I will have my own hospital.
