I have applied for this important position for several reasons. First, Mr. Jared Nielson, Mesa View Hospitals Occupational Therapist has encouraged me to apply. He recommends me for this position because he has been my Fieldwork Educator and has evaluated my work firsthand. I think highly of Mr. Nielson as well and want to continue to work with him. I respect his professional knowledge, judgment, and skills as well as how he cares for his patients. I am looking to work in a setting where I can continue to develop my clinical reasoning and evaluation skills and promote health and wellness while improving function. Early into my graduate studies at Touro University Nevada, I discovered that I wanted a broad occupational therapy practice, one with variety in terms of the patients served. I also began to appreciate how important it is for patients to be able to be treated close to home. Consistent with my professional objective to be a well rounded therapist, I chose the Mesa View Hospital fieldwork opportunity. I am grateful that my fieldwork at Mesa View Hospital has given me opportunities to work in multiple settings, treat differing diagnoses, and to serve patients of all ages. In addition to my fieldwork at Mesa View Hospital, I have prepared myself well to become a well-rounded therapist by completing continuing education in many different practice areas. The specific coursework and experiences are referenced on my resume. I feel strongly that my skills as a sign language interpreter will allow me to serve more people as I build my occupational therapy practice. Such has been the case as I completed my fieldwork education. Thank you for considering me for this position. I appreciate your time and attention. Please feel free to contact me through phone or email. Sincerely, John Vincent Rider, MSOT, OTR/L, CEAS
