Dear Human Resources Recruiter,

The enclosed resume highlights my accomplishments, skills, abilities, and clinical nursing
experience. I have the ability to work collaboratively with all members of the health care team
and patients to foster an optimal outcome.
Being a graduate of Humber College Practical Nursing program has provided me the knowledge
and clinical skills to perform as a Registered Practical Nurse by utilizing continuous reflective
practice and clinical judgment for excellence in patient satisfaction and safety. My extensive
clinical experience in the rehabilitation and complex continuing care setting has provided me the
ability to understand the Rehabilitation philosophy and to provide patient centered care in
encouraging patients to achieve their goals and be at their optimal best.
I am confident that being a part of a dynamic organization will not only allow me to put into
practice the clinical skills, symptom management skills, therapeutic relationship and patient
center care approach to care that I have learned thus far. This opportunity will also provide me
with the opportunity to grow within an inter-professional team for safe and efficient patient
outcomes. I am excited to work in an organization that is driven by being better together to
attain their goals of quality, sustainability and accessibility for patients, as this to me is authentic
in providing compassionate care.
For these reasons, I would appreciate the opportunity to meet with you for an interview, to
further discuss my qualifications and suitability for this position. Thank you for your time and
consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,
Safa Muhammad
