I am excited to express my interest in the Registered Nurse position and residency program for
new nurses. In May 2020 I will be graduating from the University of South Florida with a
Bachelor’s in Science of Nursing and minor in Public Health. The College of Nursing program
consists of over 650 clinical hours involving inpatient care, numerous inpatient specialties, and
community health. I had the opportunity to acquaint myself to the fast paced and challenging
routine of the Emergency Department of Tampa General Hospital during my senior
preceptorship. I believe that I would be a strong addition to your team as I have quick thinking
abilities and professional yet approachable bedside manner.
In the various nursing environments that I have experienced, I have always made it a point to
acquaint myself with patient’s family members or support system to ensure they are equipped
with the proper education required to maintain a long-term care plan for their loved one after
discharge. I was also able to experience chaotic events where I remained calm and collected,
which allowed me to aid in any way possible and learn from these events. From the College of
Nursing I have greatly developed my skills in critical thinking and therapeutic communication.
During my university experience I have gained skills such as time management and productivity,
which have improved further through the nursing program.
