Summary

To whom this may concern,

My name is Brooke McInnes, and I am interested in to applying for the Advanced care paramedic position at your company. I currently have 11 1/2 years of experience in this profession.

I am a committed paramedic offering proven history of exercising strong judgment in high-pressure situations. Skilled in patient needs assessment and critical care. Detail-oriented and compassionate with expansive knowledge of emergency medicine. I also am effective in managing operations. Successful in encouraging team members to work efficiently and meet production targets. Well-organized, self-motivated and knowledgeable about successful strategies for managing fast-paced work.

I thoroughly enjoy teaching students that come my way, which have all been very successful in becoming paramedics. While I teach, I also find that I'm learning so much new information at the same time.

This short summary of myself is just a snippet of what type of an employee that I am, and Im looking forward to having an opportunity to join your team.
