    Good afternoon Jeanelyn.
    All Registered Nurses must have the ability to effectively communicate in writting and verbally. Evidence of your written English communiction leaves room for much improvement. I would welcome working with you if your skills improve considerbly. Otherwise, there is great risk for errors in communications regarding all aspects of nursing and patient care.
