Nursing Cover Letter Sample

I highly recommend crafting a properly planned, well-written cover letter if you are applying for any nursing position. Even though it is the job of your resume to lay out a complete list of the skills and experience you have in the field, you also need to mention in your cover letter any key aspects of your work that would apply to the new position.

Study this nursing cover letter example, and use it as a template for writing your own. You've got the structure. Now fill it in with your personality and experience in a compelling way. Make your cover letter unique for the nursing position you are applying for.

Mrs. Samantha Smith
Head Nurse
Jans Hospital

Dear Mrs. Smith:

I was excited to see the nursing position listed for Jans Hospital in the local paper. I earned an R.N. seventeen years ago and have been working in the nursing field ever since.

I've recently moved to Jans Village and would like to continue my career here. I specialize in pediatrics, but I have a wide range of experience, the details of which are in my attached resume.

Can we set up an interview so I can find out what specific qualities you are looking for in the nurses on your staff? I'd also like the chance to share with you some of my experiences in this profession.

Please call me on my cell phone to schedule a day and time for getting together.
I appreciate you taking the time to read through my letter and the attached resume, and for considering my qualifications for the nursing position you've listed.

I look forward to meeting you soon.

Sincerely,

(signature)
