Dear Dr. Wolf:

Per your advertisement in the San Diego Times, I am writing to state my interest in the New Grad RN program at Bayne Memorial Hospital. I will graduating with a BSN from the University of South Florida (USF) School of Nursing in August, 2013, and believe my education and work experiences have prepared me for the excellence demonstrated and expected of the medical team at BMH.

Prior to entering nursing school, I worked for several years as an EMT, which strengthened my resolve to further my education and become a nurse. Experience in high-stress emergency environments challenged me, preparing me as I then accepted the discipline, mental challenges, organization, team work, and leadership skills required of nursing students. I have been able to incorporate my natural abilities of academic studies, compassion with those in need, communication, and teamwork to the field of nursing. In so doing, I have earned membership in three academic nursing honor societies, am graduating with honors, and have gained experience in such areas as the Tampa Veteran’s Hospital, the medical/surgical floors, and received training in almost every floor of Florida Hospital Tampa (formerly UCH), in which I have done clinical training for the past two years, specifically during the internship in summer 2013.  USF has prepared me to enter the nursing field, and I am confident that I can provide not only the skills which you demand, but the continued growth which you expect.

I am very interested in beginning my nursing career at Bayne Memorial Hospital and would be grateful for the opportunity to speak with you. I am presently completing my final semester at USF, which prevents a personal visit at this time.  However, I am presently available for a phone interview or by email.  I also plan to fly to San Diego at the end of August and stay for several weeks; the purpose is to make arrangements to relocate to your area.  Therefore, it would certainly be beneficial if I could meet with you sometime in September.  In the interim, I can be reached at 856-534-4165 or via email at lauraheim@verizon.net.

Thank you for considering me for this exciting opportunity.

Sincerely,

 

Laura Heim
