Re: Psychiatry Research Coordinator Opening
Dear Sir,
In response to your job posting for a research coordinator for your mental wellness screening organization, I am pleased to submit my attached resume.
For the past nine years, I have been serving the adult and teenage population of [Your-city] in ABC Mental Health Bureau, and saw an average of 2,000 clients annually, directing them to appropriate agencies, clinics, doctors, and therapists.
I treat my clients with dignity and understanding, and enable them to succeed reaching their life purpose.
In addition to assisting clients with referrals, my duties also included:
- Recruiting adults of all ages for research projects, whether answering surveys, participating in experimental therapies, or debriefings.
- Reviewing documentation concerning their medical history, laboratory tests, and previous dosage, gathered information through focused listening, and assessed clients’ cognitive and psychiatric state.
- Working with clients’ families to determine their eligibility for government and privately funded initiatives, and verified insurance coverage.
Our Stay Well: Stay Part of the Real-World program has been implemented in other cities, and in [Your-city], the occurrence of repeat hospitalizations has dropped by 74%.
It would my pleasure to meet with you to discuss my philosophy and methods further.
You can reach me via email or by calling my cell phone.
If I am with a client, you’ll reach my voice mail and I will call you back as soon as possible.
Respectfully yours,
Dan Murphy
