To Whom It May Concern:

I am writing to explore the possibility of pursing a position as a clinical nurse. I began seeking an opportunity as a health care provider in December of 2002 when I applied to the School to Career internship program at Yale New Haven Hospital. While attending college, I obtained a position on a med/surgical unit as a Patient care associate at YNHH. It was then that my desire for nursing became a reality. I learned the fundamentals of caring for patients under the supervision of a Registered Nurse. Prior to completing my last year of Nursing School in June 2013, I decided to challenge myself by obtaining a position in the Emergency Department at YNHH. Since I began working in the health care profession in 2002, I have established optimal nurse-patient relationships, strong clinical decision making skills, and have recognized that collaborating with other disciplines is essential to patient care. My ability to critically think while integrating evidenced-based findings, has enhanced my ability to provide the highest level of care. My matriculation from a teenager to a young adult has greatly been influenced by my experience, which has molded me into who I am today.

If given the opportunity for employment, I know I can be an asset to your establishment. I am quick to learn new procedures and policies, hard work and dedication will prove to be of value, which may free you from the in-depth training that would be required for a less experienced candidate.

In closing, I hope you will consider me for a clinical nurse position. Enclosed is a copy of my resume for your review. I would really appreciate the opportunity for an interview to further discuss my qualification.

In the meantime, I thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Mouzon RN
