To Whom it may concern:
I am writing this cover letter to apply for your open Nuclear Medicine
Technologist position, in healthcare, it’s not enough to use great patient care; you
must also provide great customer service also. You need to reduce injuries and
complaints without impacting quality.
Over the last few years, I have focused on delivering great patient care
and customer service while constantly improving my job responsibilities and
reducing conflicts. Because I’m flexible, I can assist patients with the proper care
they need and deserve while trying to reduce insecurities they may have about
their stay at a healthcare facility.
Apart from having an Associate’s Degree in Nuclear Medicine, I also have
one and a half years in a clinical role as Nuclear Medicine Technologist Student. I
am currently employed as a Certified Nursing Assistant at Johnston Medical
Center. I am a great communicator and team player, and have very strong
analytical skills. In closing, I love what I do, take pride in learning every day, and
offering my experience and knowledge to the nuclear medicine field. I see the
same kind of dedication and level of success in your company, and this is why I
would make an excellent match for the position’s needs.
I would like the opportunity to show your company how I can put my
experience to work for you. Please feel free to call me at 919-***-**** or (919)
464-3068 with a time that would be more convenient to your schedule.
Sincerely,
Kimberly Boone
