Writing Essentials

Did you know that...

When Internationally Educated Health Professionals lack competencies in writing English, there are several dangers they may face while interacting with others, attempting to get things done, giving instructions, or understanding information. Some of these dangers include:

1. Miscommunication: Lack of competency in writing English can lead to misunderstandings and miscommunication between healthcare professionals and patients, which could have serious consequences for patient safety and care.

2. Incomplete or inaccurate documentation: Poor writing skills can result in incomplete or inaccurate medical records, which can make it difficult for other healthcare professionals to understand a patient's history or treatment plan.

3. Lack of confidence and credibility: Health professionals who struggle with writing English may lack confidence in their abilities and may be perceived as less competent by others. This could impact their credibility and reputation within the healthcare community.

4. Missed opportunities for professional development: Poor writing skills can also limit opportunities for professional development, as many healthcare organizations require written communication for training and advancement purposes.

5. Challenges with following protocols and procedures: Inaccurate or unclear written instructions can lead to confusion and difficulties in following protocols and procedures, which could negatively impact patient care.
