The statement that is false about the skills a surgical technologist may need is:
"Since the surgical technologist lectures about the surgery, he/she needs public speaking skills."
Surgical technologists do not typically lecture about surgeries; instead, they assist in the operating room, prepare surgical instruments, and maintain a sterile environment. While good communication skills are beneficial, public speaking is not a primary requirement for their role.
