When you’re getting ready to launch your career in the
medical field, whether you’re thinking of becoming a medical assistant or a phlebotomy technician, there are many ways to
ensure success. Learning all you can about the job market and taking steps to
become certified are great ways to get started on the right foot.
That said, there are other ways you’ll want to prepare
for a fulfilling career. You’ll be working amongst other professionals and very
closely with the public. Here are a few more ways to truly embody your new role
as a medical team player:
·
Start browsing scrubs online if that’s what you’ll
be wearing to work. You can also try some on in a local boutique. Not only will
this help you really “feel” the part, you can also get an idea of how having
the right apparel for the job can really make your day much better.
·
Consider your personal grooming habits. Being a
phlebotomy technician will require you to wash your hands frequently, so you’ll
want to have quality hand lotion at the ready. You’ll want hair ties or
headbands to keep your hair neat and out of the way. Keeping perfumes and
scented lotions to a minimum is a good idea as well.
·
Invest in a good—no, great—pair of shoes that
will allow you to work comfortably on your feet all day. Some prefer the
standard athletic footwear, but many also swear by the footwear that has been
exclusively created for the medical profession. Do your homework and choose
one.
