Professional Personal Care Worker Cover Letter Example

Dear Ms. Altha Boland,

I would like to be considered for the personal care worker position that was recently listed by your facility Colfax Health and Rehabilitation Center. Attached for your convenience you will find my resume which highlights my experience more fully.

I currently hold a high school diploma and have completed certification through the state which included training in nutrition, personal hygiene, personal care and infection control along with passing an exam to work in this field. My experience includes six years in the industry and there would be no problem with me passing a criminal background check along with any physical exams. I am a licensed driver and do not have a problem doing in home, living with the patient, or in facility care, whichever is required of me.

My skills include great communication and interpersonal skills which enable me to work effectively with the elderly and disabled patients. This includes light housekeeping, cooking, shopping and transporting patients to appointments as well as regulating and administering all medications. I am also able to teach these patients to care for themselves when required or training family members to assume the care of their elderly or disabled individuals.

Other skills include the ability to work on a computer system in order to maintain health care records and to input the dates and times of all medications that are administered.

Please feel free to contact me at any time by calling (555)-555-5555 to set up a time for an interview. I look forward to hearing from you.

Respectfully,

Tom Lilly
