To: Hiring Manager, Human Resources

My name is Delia Franco FNP-BC. My NP experience includes urgent care, retail medicine, pain management with adjunctive therapies, adult primary care and owner of my own integrative wellness and pain management clinic. Prior to becoming a Nurse Practitioner, I worked in case management /utilization review, patient education, clinical research, home health and OB/GYN as well as women and childrens's services. It has been my practice to obtain training through courses and certifications in areas of specialty pertaining to my profession and I plan to continue this.

My DEA is in process. My Arizona nursing license is active, with restriction. All information regarding my license will be given full disclosure. Working part time does not present a problem for me.

Please contact me by email or phone with any questions you have. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Yours sincerely,

Delia Christina Franco MSN, FNP-BC
