Dear Hiring Manager,
I am writing to express my interest in the Licensed Practical Nurse
position at your organization. As a dedicated and experienced nursing
professional with over 28 years of experience, I am confident that I
can contribute to your team's success.
I recently resigned from my position as an LPN at Trend Health and
Rehab because I believe that each patient deserves individualized and
compassionate care. During my eight-hour shifts, I was expected to
administer medications, perform wound care, manage peg feedings,
colostomy care, and more, all while ensuring extensive charting and
timely admissions, transfers, and discharges. Unfortunately, I felt that
I was not able to give each patient the attention and care they
deserved. That experience has taught me the value of a smaller
patient-to-nurse ratio, which would enable me to provide
individualized care to each patient effectively.
Throughout my 28-year career as an LPN in a fast-paced hospital
setting, I have been dedicated to providing compassionate and
attentive care to patients of all backgrounds. My experience in wound
care, intravenous medications, nursing staff supervision, and patient
care has been honed through years of practice. I possess a diverse
skill set, including conducting physical assessments, developing
patient care plans, administering medications and treatments, and
handling sterile procedures, tracheostomy care, and specimen
collection and analysis. With my proficiency in monitoring
respiration, blood pressure, and blood glucose levels, I am able to
diagnose and manage patients effectively.
I have a proven track record of collaborating with interdisciplinary
teams of healthcare and social service providers to address patients'
needs through effective intervention and care planning, and am
committed to educating patients and their families on medical
diagnoses, treatment options, chronic disease self-management, and
wound management.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I am excited about the
opportunity to bring my skills and experience to your team and
provide individualized and exceptional care to each patient.
Sincerely,
Sandra Riddle
