    Registered Nurse, Regular FT, Edmonton

    To Management Team,

    My name is Kohley Lucas and I am excited to apply for the registered nursing position offered in
    the UHA Emergency Room. I completed my preceptorship in the Leduc Emergency Room
    which sparked a passion for this fast-paced environment. During my ER experience I worked
    with patients with various presentations such as: Substance withdrawal, alcohol withdrawal,
    DKA, suicidal ideation, anemia, various infections, trauma, and appendicitis. I had the
    opportunity to work with both adult and pediatric patients. When my preceptorship ended I was
    managing the medicine beds of the ER with minimal assistance.

    Over the past 6 months, in my role as a Medicine float nurse at the University of Alberta
    Hospital, I have had the chance to develop my skills with the Connect Care charting system. I
    have also had the opportunity to further advance my nursing and time management skills through
    guidance from the nursing educators on staff, and through individual practice.

    Throughout my nursing education I have worked in many different clinical environments and
    took the opportunity to volunteer in the Philippines in a hospital in Iloilo. This experience
    increased my adaptability to various environments with limited resources while maintaining
    quality care.

    I believe my passion, drive, and desire to learn new skills will enable me to thrive in a team
    environment such as the Royal Alexandra Emergency Room. My experience during my
    preceptorship in the Leduc ER and my past 6 months experience in Medicine float make me a
    strong candidate for the position.
