Dear Mr. Hepburn,
This letter is in reference to the open Occupational Therapist position at [Hospital X] in San Francisco, CA. I was pleased when reading the job advertisement on [URL], because it matches my profile and career ambitions. In this cover letter, I will elaborate on my motivation and qualifications to help your patients develop, recover and maintain the skills needed for daily living and working.
To shortly introduce myself, my name [Brooklyn Williams] and I am a registered occupational therapist (OTR) and certified physical rehabilitation practitioner (BCPR). I had the pleasure of speaking with [Ashley Brooks], an occupational therapist in your department, and she was highly positive about the delicate balance of medical efficiency without sacrificing personal comfort at [Hospital X]. I am excited about the opportunity to work in such an environment and contribute to [Hospital X]’s therapeutic objectives.
During my four years of employment at [Hospital Y], I treated more than 200 patients with various diagnoses, from Multiple Sclerosis (MS) to Parkinson’s Disease (PD). Part of my role was to manage five OT assistants and interact with patients about the condition, progress and goals in treatment sessions. In 2021, I spearheaded individual plans of care for 60+ adult patients which improved work efficiency by 25% and increased positive feedback results according to conducted patient satisfaction surveys. I received recognition for these results (see references).
Since several months I moved to San Francisco, and therefore seeking a new but similar rewarding and fulfilling work environment. I would welcome the opportunity to further discuss my candidacy and daily operations at [Hospital X]. Please find my resume enclosed. For additional information, you can reach me at [Phone number] or [Email Address]. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Kind regards,
Brooklyn Williams
