Question 2 • AA - S26 Introduction to Healthcare Science
An X-ray technician is giving a verbal report to a doctor. The doctor interrupts many times to ask questions about the report. However, these questions are spoken hastily, and the technician is not really sure if she’s understood what she’s being asked. The technician gets impatient with the interruptions, and she decides enough questions have been answered when she is done with her report. What does the doctor need to improve?
Answer
A
reading skills
B
writing skills
C
oral communication strategies
D
written communication strategies
Explanation
The doctor is asking questions aloud, so the issue involves oral communication. The questions are rushed and unclear, making it difficult for the technician to understand them. The doctor should improve oral communication strategies, such as speaking clearly, pacing questions, and checking for understanding.
