Don’t Make Speed Your Sole Aim

• Improve your practises and techniques, cut

unnecessary steps, to help minimise your

operating time. However, do not compromise

on quality simply in pursue of speed.

• Avoid losing your nerve, rushing the job and

compromising quality. Devote the time that’s

necessary, devote the time that’s needed.

• Be fast, but don’t make speed your sole aim.

Understand Your Limitations

• Understand your limitations in terms of clinical

skills, surgical skills, diagnostic ability, also the
limitations of your institution and your team.

• Recognise own limitations and put egos on the
side in the name of quality and safety.

• If needed, refer patients on to those who may

be able to do a better job.

• Don’t stretch your limits simply due to external

pressures.
