Dear [Mrs. Poor],
As an experienced and fully licensed Registered Nurse dedicated to the mission of compassionate patient care, I feel that I am an excellent candidate for the open Nursing position. I'm hard-working, energetic, and highly skilled, and confident that I am prepared to provide the quality of care that Palmetto Health is known for.
Beyond my skill in safely administering medications, monitoring vital signs, bedside care, and quality patient care, I am a passionate advocate for my patients. My comforting approach to educating patients and loved ones about health-related issues creates a positive environment that lifts patient's spirits, even in challenging circumstances.
My communication and documentation skills are also top-notch. I understand the importance of being clear and thorough with patients and other medical professionals, am an excellent listener, and perform well under pressure.
I've attached my resume, which details my nursing experience more comprehensively, including my certifications and educational background. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Kartina Gause
