Re: Personal Support Worker Position

The Human Resources Manager

Human Resources Department

The Manager:

I am interested in a Personal Support Worker position in your company. Therefore, I am forwarding my resume for your consideration.

I have completed my placement at Leisure World, which is a fast-paced and resident driven environment. I’ve have learned various ways in dealing with different residents which I believe to be beneficial to me in handling them with respect while ensuring their safety, independence, and privacy. I’ve had experience assisting residents in their activities of daily living, carrying out their routine functions, documentation, observing and reporting changes to the charge nurse.

I am a very responsible person, who works well independently as part of a team. I am also assertive and persuasive, and I can easily adapt to new situations. I am very hardworking, energetic and dedicated. I am a highly motivated person who can deal with co-workers and staff, a team player, and I will bring to the job the willingness to work and an eagerness to learn.

Enclosed is my resume for your perusal. I would appreciate the opportunity of a personal interview at your own convenience to further discuss your needs and my abilities. You can call me at 647-***-**** anytime or send me an email at adm12a@r.postjobfree.com
