Medical Nurse Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’ve spent the last seven years working across acute and community settings, bringing order to busy shifts and steady care to patients when it matters most. In a recent role I helped coordinate care for a ward of 20 patients, ensuring medication administration and daily assessments stayed on track. The process cut documentation errors by a noticeable margin and kept handover times efficient for the team. I’m drawn to this role at [Company Name] because of the emphasis on assessment, planning and evaluation in a collaborative environment. I’m comfortable with clinical monitoring, care planning and evidence-based practice, and I value clear communication with patients and families. I’m also used to supervising enrolled nurses and health workers, and I know how to support a team while keeping patient safety front and centre. A memorable shift involved a patient with complex needs who was unstable after a fluid bolus. I led the assessment, updated the care plan, coordinated with the med team and provided timely education for the family. The patient’s condition stabilised over 24 hours and we avoided escalation. It reinforced how important precise assessments, timely interventions and good documentation are to outcomes. I’m available for discussion about how I can contribute to your team at [Company Name]. I’m happy to talk through my approach to nursing assessments, care planning and interprofessional collaboration in more detail. Kind regards, [Your Name]
