Paragraph 1

Dear Sir / Madam

I am responding to your advertisement for a Registered Nurse that appeared in the August 2013 issue of the Staff Nursing Times. After reading the job description in detail I am confident that I would make an outstanding addition to your medical team. I am a highly motivated Registered Nurse with over three years of practical experience in the high-level care of patients, the support of clinical operations and also the cost effective management of healthcare operations. I consider my greatest strengths to be my ability to develop and maintain excellent working relations with physicians, staff and patients as well as a comprehensive understanding of all areas of nursing care and healthcare delivery. My passion for the industry was fueled by the death of my father, who died of cancer in 2003. The care and treatment he received inspired me to want to do the same and make a difference in the personal well-being of the lives of others. I believe that working in a challenging environment such as yours will provide an excellent opportunity for me to best utilize my skills, whilst also contributing to the healthcare community, patients and their families as a whole.
