Orthotists Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, Opening hook In my role as an orthotist, I focused on practical, patient‑led care and worked with teams to get reliable devices into place quickly. At a clinic where we redesigned a paediatric ankle‑foot orthosis, we cut fitting time by a third and reduced post‑fit adjustments by 40 percent using targeted plaster casts and precise measurements. Skills alignment I have hands on experience with patient assessment, limb measurements and reading prescriptions for devices. I’m comfortable supervising the fabrication process, selecting commercially available components when appropriate, and fitting or adjusting devices to ensure comfort and function. I’ve regularly documented device outcomes and followed up with patients to confirm effectiveness. Evidence story A recent case involved a patient who needed a customised ankle‑foot orthosis after a sprain. I conducted a full assessment, created a plaster cast, and coordinated with the workshop to refine the fit. The final device reduced pain on weight bearing and contributed to better gait symmetry over a six‑week period, significantly improved IADL performance, and fewer clinic visits for tweaks. Professional close I’m available for a discussion about how I can contribute to [Company Name] and support patients from initial assessment through follow up. I can start as soon as needed and would welcome the chance to chat. Kind regards, [Your Name]
