Taking a person's blood pressure is generally considered a **hard skill**. Hard skills refer to specific, teachable abilities or knowledge sets that can be defined and measured. They often involve technical tasks or proficiency in a particular area, such as medical or dental procedures.
In contrast, **soft skills** are interpersonal attributes and traits that relate to how you work and interact with others, such as communication, empathy, and teamwork.
While taking blood pressure requires technical knowledge and practice (a hard skill), effective communication with the patient about the procedure and managing their comfort may involve soft skills.
