PROFILE



Do you need an experienced, proven and intelligent professional
on your nursing staff?

Since starting a career in the nursing profession, I have worked
daily to improve the quality of care I provide to the clients assigned
to me.  In addition to client service, I have focused my professsional
capacities on providing a level of service to my employers.  This is
an example to my peers and encouraged me to seek opportunities
with organizations that are interested in a seasoned professional
with skilled and applicable nursing experience.

The preponderance of my experience, to date, has been through
the agency, where I have been able to work as a Staff RN.  A team
member across the spectrum of Med/Surg, Rehab, and Skilled
Nursing Care that major facilities offer. I find this work professional
challenging and mentally stimulation.  It also encourages me to
meet my full potential.  As you will see, from the enclosed resume,
that I have demonstrated a work history that allows me to become
an immediate asset to your nursing staff, with little or no
supervison needed.  You will find me:
*Dedicated, team-oriented and resourceful.
*Accurate, efficient and well organized.

*Determined to be a top performer and capable of handling
demanding responsibilities and expections.

I appreciate your consideration of my background and look forward
to discussing in detail the responsibilities associated with possible
positions on your nursing staff.




Sincerely,






Catherine Emmanuil
