When you begin your career as a medical assistant , professionalism in the workplace is crucial. No matter who you interact with during your day, you need to ensure that you are giving everyone the right impression of you, and that impression is that you are capable, competent, and someone who can be trusted in a medical setting. If you give the impression that you are not professional, you will have a difficult time getting patients and clinical staff to trust you to do your job effectively.

It is based on the idea that people are more likely to change when motivated by their values and goals, rather than external pressure or persuasion. To achieve this, practitioners use techniques to build trust, empathy, and understanding with their clients.
