Recommendations

'I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Annelise Mauritz, who was a brilliant student during her clinical placement at Tuart Ward, Mount Hospital.  She showed herself to be an energetic and meticulous student.


Annelise has always been interested in the nursing field.  I have asked Annelise why she wants to be a nurse. She wants to truly make a difference in as many people's lives as she possibly can.  This is an extremely moving sentiment and I have been watching her closely to see where this leads over her four week placement.  She has learned and is keen to learn multiple skills. Annelise is also a great team player.  She is consistent in her performance and is enthusiastic in her care for patients. 


As you can tell I think very highly of this young woman and would recommend Annelise without reservations for employment or any other endeavour she chooses to pursue. Please contact me for any further questions about this outstanding Enrolled Nurse to be.'


- Karen Chen, Registered Nurse, Tuart Ward, Mount Hospital
