Ward Clerk Cover Letter Example

Dear Ms. Brock,

I am writing to demonstrate my interest and qualifications for your advertised Ward Clerk position at General Hospital’s orthopedic surgery unit. As an extremely efficient and experienced ward clerk I can bring an organized knowledgeable and focused approach to the position.

In my current ward clerk position I meticulously maintain patient files ensure that patients receive diagnostic and rehabilitative care ordered by treating physicians and coordinate the ward’s smooth operation. I am a skilled problem-solver with a keen attention to detail and valuable familiarity with hospital operations. My strong interpersonal and computer skills understanding of medical terminology and multi-tasking abilities also add to my strengths as a ward clerk. I understand that your orthopedic surgery ward is extremely busy and I have the quick-thinking self-directed and collaborative work style needed to manage a unit of that size and pace. I currently support a busy 40-bed unit and ensured its smooth operation while undergoing a complete electronic medical record conversion. My calm flexible nature is uniquely suited to your ward clerk role and I know I can effect a seamless efficient transition.

My mix of skills training and work ethic are exactly what your orthopedic surgery department needs. I am available at your convenience to further discuss my qualifications. I look forward to hearing from you.

Regards,

Maeve Guerra
