Thank you so much. I did spell mannequin wrong!!!!!! I will also include my clincal hours as well. Thanks for the feedback.

I'm writing a cover letter for a medicine/telemetry position at a local hospital and I would really appreciate some feedback. Jane Doe 555 Anywhere USA [email protected] November13th, 2012 NurseRecruitment 1455 Appletree lane Some Big Hospital To Whom it May Concern, I'm interested in the position available at your facility for a telemetry/medicalnurse. I came across your position on the xxx website and was immediately drawn to it. I have always had a passion for telemetry/medicine since I was in nursing school. I believe this opportunity will create a great, solid foundation of my present and future nursing knowledge. I would make an excellent candidate for your hospital because I am willing to accept challenges while keeping an open mind. I had a clinical rotation at xxx Hospital in the telemetry/medical unit and it was an excellent experience. I was able to learn basic ECG interpretation and how to care for patients with CHF, Renal failure, MI, gastric disorders, etc. During my time in clinical rotations I developed a sharp sense of multitasking while learning to assess situations quickly, administer medications accurately, and work well as part of a team. I'm efficient in Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint. I can apply my knowledge of BLS and ACLS for all my patients. Working for your institution has always been a dream of mine due to the large, diverse community that you serve. I am also thrilled by all the specialties that your hospital has to offer. Your hospital seems to be a great place to learn and advance your career in the future. My goal is to combine what I have learned in school with what I can learn at your facility to the care of my patients. Overall I plan to improve patient care and satisfaction for all of my patients. Patients in my care will be pleased and satisfied with their care. I believe that your institution deserves a fresh and enthusiastic new nurse who is willing to take on new and challenging experiences. I want to be that nurse who is constantly learning while providing safe, quality patient care. I look forward to discussing future possibilities of employment with you. Have a great day. Sincerely, Jane Doe, RN, B.S.

I will fix that. Sorry about that.

Hello everyone. My name is Michelle and I have graduated in May 2012 with my BSN. I have actively been looking for a job since the beginning of september. I would greatly appreciate any feedback on my resume. Here it is:

I could not find any positions in LTC online either. I went in person to 2 facilities in my neighborhood and filled out applications there. I would say your best bet is to go in person and see if they are hiring. By the way I'm in NYC.
