Dear Mrs. Hubbard,
Hello and thank you for your time and consideration. My name is Sarah Marvil, I am a soon-to-be new graduate registered nurse that is awaiting successful completion of the NCLEX (date TBD). I have a strong background in healthcare with over 10 years of combined experience, mainly in hemodialysis and emergency medical services.
Prior to nursing school, I was the sole, live-in caregiver for both of my grandparents, until they passed in the spring of 2021. The care that the hospice nurses provided my grandparents was the epitome of the nursing practice aim, and consequently piqued my interest in this field. The virtues, compassion, integrity, and experience I possess, are attributes that I believe will make me a strong nurse that will excel in this profession. I have many areas of interest, but my ideal nursing job would entail working with a supportive team that has a synergistic dynamic, and where I can earn the trust and respect of my patients and colleagues through demonstrated proficiency and reliability. Thank you again for your time and kind consideration.
Respectfully,
Sarah Marvil
