TASK 2
2.1 Assessment of current skills and ability
It is important for every individual to find their capabilities and weakness as it assist them
to modify their performance accordingly (Hanko, 2016). For instance if worker of HSC removes
their weakness and strengthen their strengths while working then their practices and performance
while working would improve to a certain level. My current skills and ability is explained below,
Strengths Weakness
I have good communication skills which helps
me to make rapport with different type of
patients coming to hospitals. As mentioned
above, people does not trust and prefers to talk
to strangers due to which these skills are
essential for me.
List and explain your strengths eg
Good IT skills: Explain
Ability to communicate effectively: Explain
One of my biggest weakness is short temper
behaviour. It is hard for me to control my anger
at that which sometimes affect me in a negative
way. For instance, if any patients irritate me
while working then sometimes I shouted on
them which affects my principles which I have
gained from the Romania. ( I have to speake
just my experience from here not from
Romania)

good essay writing skills: Explain
Other strengths of my behaviour is patience
while talking. It is an essential factor in the
HSC industry as if accurate information is not
provided to me by the patients then it becomes
hard for me to give prescription accordingly.
I have less knowledge regarding the new laws
and medical information in the HSC sector due
to which I have to give more focus on reading
and implementing them accordingly.
It should be important in the HSC to follow the
rules and guidelines provided by the hospitals
as it avoid any negligence while working and
legal issues which might be imposed by the
government. I always follow ethical rules as it
helps me perform my task with highest
productivity. Various ethical principles
includes no discrimination at work,
prescription according to patients health etc.
I found problem while handling patients from
the Romania as I do not understand their
concerns due to the language barriers.
