Mt. Olympus Hospital
Sector 31, Himalaya Marg

Dear Mr Kishore
Please accept my resignation effective 20th October as a staff nurse at Mt. Olympus Hospital.
I have decided that I want to take my career in a new direction, so in two months, I will be enrolling in graduate school.
My time at Mt. Olympus has helped me gain valuable skills that I can continue to use in a new career. I want to thank you for all the opportunities to learn and grow while working with the Mt. Olympus team.
If there is anything I can do to be of assistance while you are finding or training my replacement, please feel free to ask. I have worked in several wings in the hospital and feel confident that I could provide very thorough training for a new nurse.
It may require my schedule to change to accommodate graduate school exams and interviews.
Thank you once again for the many positive experiences over the past four years, and I look forward to staying in contact with you in the future.
Sincerely,
Shraddha Sharma”
