Before embarking on a health care career path, take a few minutes to think about your own abilities, needs and hopes. Here are some useful questions to ask yourself: Do You Like to Deal With People? ▪ One of the first questions you should ask yourself is how much you want to deal with people. For instance, it is important for nurses, pediatricians and occupational therapists to have a warm and caring personality. By contrast, other health careers (like clinical laboratory scientist, pathologist or medical illustrator) involve little or no personal contact with patients. Are You Comfortable With Science? ▪ Many (but not all) health careers require you to be a strong science student. All health careers involve some laboratory science, and some programs demand intensive work in the hard sciences (i.e., chemistry, physics, biology). Are You Prepared to Keep Up with Developments in Your Field? ▪ Good health care practitioners are committed to giving their patients the best care available. That means, in order to keep up with the latest developments in your field, you’ll need to continue studying and learning throughout your career.
