A doctor, nurse, physician assistant, or anyone else in the medical field can use this letter to offer a resignation due to health concerns while also expressing a willingness to return to their position in health care when safe.
The ongoing situation has taken its toll on me, and I must join the increasing number of my colleagues in health care who simply cannot take it anymore.
I’ve been stretched thin for months, and it’s only gotten worse. My feelings of hopelessness and despair are real and understandable, and I cannot apologize for the action I must take to protect myself and my family.
It is my hope that I am leaving on good terms, and that I will be considered for rehire when conditions improve.
