Do you prefer to work alone, or in teams? Can you please explain your answer.

"I enjoy working in teams and also on an individual basis. There are sometimes, for example, when I am charting or taking notes where I really prefer to work alone because it is less distracting. However, when it comes to finding solutions or treatment plans for patients or working on new internal processes for the clinic and patient care, I like to work with teams. Teamwork"‹ can really help with brainstorming ideas that can improve patient care. In my most recent role, we would have twice a week team meetings where we would discuss difficult cases and how to go about resolving them. This was a great way to get other members' input and come up with a great plan for patients."
