About Tina Greco:

To Whom It May Concern:
Nursing is a noble profession, and one of unequaled importance for its influence upon the mind, body, and spirit of the people. I chose nursing because it is a profession of selflessness. I give not to receive, but simply to serve those in need. I feel that it is my moral responsibility to advocate profoundly for my patients because I am driven by the principles of honesty, integrity, and treating people with respect. I have had the opportunity to act upon my moral authority within the Intensive Care Unit, Organ Donation Field, Haiti, and now Palliative Care known as Hospice nursing and have thrived in promoting the hospitals code of ethics and excellence by providing high-quality nursing care and unparalleled customer service. My understanding of Medicare guidelines and IC9/IC-10 diagnosis codes have impacted me to stay motivated and passionate with a desire to continue to make a profound difference
My life experiences have transformed me into a team player, an effective communicator, and a devoted promoter of health. As a RN Case Manager and now a Clinical Supervisor, it is essential for me to work successfully with my Team to collaboratively assess and respond to the needs of our patients that are seriously depended on our services and importance to lead by example. I have learned that success stemmed from ones’ ability to adapt rapidly to change and ones’ capability to build strong relationships with their peers. As a Clinical Supervisor I have the understanding of knowing why issues arise in an Home care, whether that care is home health or hospice. I have discovered that advanced knowledge of proper medical terminology is what leads a business to success and a patient and their family members to peaceful outcomes, especially in a city full of diversity.
To have the opportunity to work in a field of medicine I understand the focus of nursing skills, duties and responsibly will shift constantly to meet the needs of patients in a time of need. My ability to form fast working relationships to better the situation and challenge at hand has evolved from the different areas of nursing I have come to enjoy. Also, to have the opportunity to work as a clinical supervisor, I understand Medicare guidelines for compliance of visits and the importance of corrective action planning.

Thank you for taking the time from your valuable schedule to review my letter of interest, and I hope this inspires you to contact me at your earliest convenience.
