Always remember that communication is an important part of our everyday lives.  In addition, it is a critical component in the heatlhcare profession.  As you communicate remember Homer Simpson's quote "the problem with the world today is communication. Too much communication" (Groening, 2010).  Therefore, it is not so much what you say, but rather how you say it regardless of whether the message is in any of these forms: verbal, non-verbal, or electronic.  Communicating professionally in the 21st century is what makes a lasting impression.
