Dear__________________:

 

I am currently seeking a challenging new Nursing career opportunity and am submitting my resume for your review.  In advance, thank you for your time and consideration.

 

As demonstrated in the accompanying resume, for the past 2 years I served as Charge Nurse on a 30-bed Behavioral Health Inpatient Unit, where in addition to conducting comprehensive patient assessments and developing/delivering treatment plans I was responsible for leading a dynamic team of nurses and mental health workers.  I am well-versed in behavioral and mental health issues, have a solid knowledge of related social service/community resources and am adept in collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to maximize results.  My nursing career goes back to 1989, where I launched my career as an LVN and steadily progressed through ongoing studies, credentialing and increased responsibilities.  In addition to my RN credentials, I am in the early stages of pursuing an MSN through the University of Phoenix.

 

As a nursing professional, you will find me to be a driven team player committed to supporting you in achieving your objectives through superior performance.  I am confident that I could be a valuable asset in attaining your goals, and look forward to interviewing with you in the near future.

 

Sincerely,

 

 

 

Josh Grewal, RN
