If you’re pursuing the Medical Career in The Sims 4, one of the most important skills you need to focus on is getting the diagnosis right.
Becoming a good doctor is hard. You need to study a lot and see lots of patients. Once your Sim has reached Level 4, they can start making diagnoses.
Oftentimes, the main challenge for players is getting the diagnosis right.
How do you diagnose patients correctly in Sims 4?
To successfully diagnose patients in The Sims 4, level up your Sim’s Logic skill. Doctors need excellent Logic skills to analyze all the symptoms and diagnose patients correctly. Being in a Focused mood when seeing patients helps tremendously.
You need to follow the game’s instructions to get the diagnosis right. Follow the script to the letter. Perform all the necessary tests on one Sim, instead of going to someone else. Check their eyes, take their temperature, do a treadmill test, run a full body scan, and all the other specific examinations that the game tells you to do.
Running extra tests will provide a confident diagnosis.
Sometimes, you won’t be able to run all the tests. For example, you can’t do treadmill tests on kids.
As your Sim levels up, they’ll get better at making diagnoses. The more examinations you do, and the more patients you see, the better you’ll become at making the right diagnosis.
Keep an eye on the patient for additional clues. Check the thought bubbles, and watch for stripes, spots, red marks, itching, and other symptoms. The problem is that sometimes you don’t get all of the symptoms.
If you can’t get a guaranteed diagnosis, and you have two options left, you can take a guess and hope for the best.
After you’ve given the treatment to your patient, a notification will pop up to inform you if your diagnosis was correct.
Having more Charisma can help your Sim make the right diagnosis. This skill helps them communicate with patients easily and obtain the information they need for making the correct diagnosis.
If your sim is sick, click on the computer and buy some medicine. If the option to buy medicine is not available, replace the computer and try again.
Alternatively, you can also use homemade remedies.
⇒ Fun Fact: You can make your Sim nauseous or sick on purpose if you want to torment them.
Happy Simming!
