QUESTION 3 OF 45

Are you able to communicate instructions clearly to a patient?

You must be able to communicate instructions clearly to your patients. You will be instructing patients on how to put in and change contact lenses, administer medication to a child or themselves, and give instructions on post-op care. If a patient does not clearly understand your instructions, they can become harmed.

"Yes, I can clearly communicate instructions to my patients. I take the time to sit down and clearly explain what they need to do. I ask them to describe the instructions I gave them, so I am sure they understand and ask them if they have questions. I am never in a hurry when I give a patient instructions because I want them to understand what I am telling them."
