Dear

Hello. My name is Leslie Howland and I am interested in a position as an Operating Room nurse for Lancaster General Hospital. I graduated from the Lancaster General College of Nursing and Health Sciences with an Associates Degree in applied Sciences with a Nursing Major in May 2011. In addition to being a member of the College's Dean's List for two semesters, I received both my B.A. in Communications and my M.A. in English Literature from Shippensburg University in 1985 and 1990. I used my education as a writer and proofreader for TV Guide Magazine and The Philadelphia Inquirer and later taught English Composition at Rowan University. In 2004, I started a successful pottery business while at home raising my three sons. Although nursing is a new career change for me, I have wanted to be a nurse since I was sixteen and a candy striper in my hometown hospital. I would be happy to forward any further information you may require, and I would be please to appear for a personal interview at your convenience. I can be reached at my home phone of 717-627-4768 or my email of lh005@lancastergeneralcollege.edu. I have enclosed a copy of my resume for you review.

Sincerely.

Leslie Howland

    I first wanted to be a Certified Nursing Assist (CNA) at the age 16. I had to do community service for Graffiti. I was given a job as an activity assistant at a nursing home. I enjoyed it so much! The people there are so much fun to work with. The best part about it was being able to help them read the paper, play bingo, or whatever they wanted to do. Once a lady and her sister were pushing chairs down the hallway and I asked “what are you doing?” They told me they were taking a train ride to see their father for his birthday. It made me feel sad because I had to explain to them that they were going the wrong way, so I helped them back to their room. Once there, I explained to them that they lived here at the nursing home and were not going anywhere. It was at that moment, I wanted to really be in the nursing field to be able to make a positive impression on someone else’s life.…

    Nursing is a second career for me. It is one I have approached gradually, over a long period of time. I might have chosen it as a first career if I had been a better student when I entered college, or had people in my life who were involved in healthcare careers when I was growing up. As it was, I had a longstanding interest in health and the human body, but nursing seemed very foreign, and the idea of touching strangers made me uncomfortable.…

    So originally I did not pursue the idea of nursing, I actually went into college thinking I was going to be a local high school teacher and wrestling coach, so I went and got my degree in Art Education, but while I was in college, I started working as a transport orderly at San Jose Medical Center before it closed, then went to Regional Medical Center of San Jose, where I started working as an Emergency Room clerk, and moved up to an Emergency Room Technician and loved the hands on with the patients. This is where I decided that teaching may wait till I retire from nursing, and nursing will become my career.…
