QUESTION 13 OF 30

What do you think are some good characteristics of a radiographer?

"I believe a radiographer should be professional, but approachable. Dealing with sick people can be very stressful and requires a professional approach, but not so much that it leaves a patient feeling ill at ease."

"A radiographer should definitely be kind and show genuine concern for patients. Being sick can be very stressful situation and showing concern often causes the patients to feel more comfortable."

When an interviewer asks a question like this, he is usually trying to see what characteristics or traits you may be 'bringing to the game,' so to speak. When you answer this question, try to think about what you would like to see in a person who is providing care for you or a loved one.

" I think a radiographer should be kind and sympathetic. Having to have an xray or ultrasound done can be frightening for some people and if I can make my patient feel at ease, I think that is an important characteristic."
