Why writing is important


Writing is important because it is used as a form of communication. It allows one to express themselves on paper instead of verbally. The profession that I am going into requires me to write memos and prescriptions. I have to learn how to write and use good communication skills because based off of what I write lets people know what type of medicine they should take and informs people of important circumstances that may come up. My writing skills will have to improve because I will have to learn to write on a professional level. There is a distinct difference in the way you write in school from when you get into a profession, no errors can be made because it makes you seem to lack communication skills and professionalism. In the medical field doctors have certain languages that they speak especially in the form of writing, not knowing how communicate via writing or talking expresses that you’re not able to speak the language  So it is almost vital that I learn how to write and be able to use good communication skills.
