I regret to inform you that I must resign from my position as a [staff nurse] at [Cody Health Clinic] effective [June 30th, 2022].

I greatly appreciate your professionalism and the knowledge I’ve gained while working with you in the past, and I hope someday we might be able to work together again.
Sincerely,
