To Whom It May Concern:

It is my pleasure to provide this letter of recommendation for Tanya Darkwah. Tanya is applying for a
position as a registered nurse at your facility. Based on my observations of Tanya as a student at the University of
Arizona College of Nursing, I believe she will make an excellent candidate for a position in your organization.

Tanya is a student enrolled in a community health nursing course I am teaching this semester. For the
clinical rotation in the course, Tanya completed a 5-week rotation with the Pima County Health Department Pubic
Health Nursing Division, conducting a community assessment and providing population-focused care to vulnerable
communities. The care included working with pregnant and parenting teens, special needs children in an
elementary school, and homeless veterans. Based on her grades, her attendance, and her ability to work with others,
I would rate her performance in my class as excellent.

Tanya possesses a number of strengths that make her a good candidate for a position at your facility. She is
reliable and responsible, as she consistently completed assigned tasks and honored her commitments. She has good
interpersonal and leadership skills and works well with others. Tanya is a skilled and creative health educator with
individuals and groups. The service-learning project she completed for the course involved a significant amount of
research and creativity, skills that Tanya has mastered. Tanya also demonstrated initiative by going beyond course
requirements and working outside of scheduled clinical days to meet community needs. Most importantly, Tanya
demonstrated compassion and respect for vulnerable populations, especially children and women of childbearing
age.

In conclusion, I would highly recommend Tanya Darkwah for a position as a registered nurse at your facility. If
her performance in my class is any indication of how she will perform as a registered nurse, Tanya will be a positive
addition to your health care team. Please feel to contact me at the number below if I can be of any further assistance.

Respectfully,

Patty Nolan Goldsmith MS, RN, PHCNS-BC
