I am seeking a full-time position where I can utilize my skills as a nationally registered certified medical assistant or a nationally registered certified phlebotomy technician. I have passion for helping others while providing exceptional organizational and interpersonal skills were the patient is first priority.
Dear Hiring Manager,
I am thrilled to apply for the position at your facility. I'm an experienced Medical Assistant and Phlebotomist with the skills and educational background needed to fulfill this role. I would be more than excited for an opportunity to work at your medical facility.
I became nationally certified for both medical assistant and phlebotomy starting in 2018. Over the years I have successfully taken and completed many courses including terminology, anatomy and physiology, Medical math, The health care setting, Quality assurance and legal issues, Infection control, safety, first aid, Medical terminology, Human anatomy and physiology, The circulatory system, Blood Collection Equip, Venipuncture Procedures, Preanalytical Considerations, Capillary Puncture Equipment and Procedures, Special Collections and Point-of-Care Testing, Nonblood Specimens and Test, Phlebotomy Clinical Applications, Medical professional issues, Insurance billing and coding, Phlebotomy essentials, Phlebotomy clinical applications, Medical administrative aspects, Patient care 1&2, Human body and health and disease, Emergency preparedness, Clinical laboratory diagnostics, Pharmacology for Allied health, nursing fundamentals l &2, and Pharmacology administration. I also was a Certified Nursing Assistant for years but never worked directly as a CAN. My experience includes working for almost three years as a phlebotomist technician at North Oaks Hospital. I frequently carried out blood draws and performed blood tests on a number of patients. During this employment period, I became familiar with the location of veins, the usage of medical technology and the analysis of blood test results.
Given the training and experience that I have, I feel more than capable of fulfilling this job role. I am a team player with the knowledge, skills and fortitude needed to carry out a variety of phlebotomy-related tasks. When carrying out my responsibility, I'm able to use compassion to calm the nerves of an anxious patient. I also have experience in explaining particular medical processes to patients. I'm capable of handling a variety of medical instruments in order to carry out Phlebotomist duties.
Thank you for your time in considering my application. I look forward to answering any additional questions you might have.
Sincerely,
Courtney Blackmon
