An Intensive Care Nurse Termination Letter has to be structured with care and forethought. It needs to explain why the employee is being released from their position without being judgmental. This is important as the letter should relay information, not deliberately elicit an emotional reaction. Get to the point Ð especially about the whys Ð and close out with a contact offering to help clarify the situation if necessary.

Dear Mrs. Reese:
As we discussed on the phone yesterday, this letter is to formally announce your Intensive Care Nurse position at Company Name is being terminated, effective April 12, 2015.
You have been absent from work for sixteen weeks now. You have already gone nine weeks over your allocated personal leave time. At this point, Amble General can no longer hold the position for you. We understand personal problems prevent you from returning to work at this time, but as you must be aware, an intensive care unit needs stability and that includes a dependable staff. While we believe your services have been invaluable, we can no longer ask current staff to manage your responsibilities or fill it with unknown temps. Patient care must come first and that includes ensuring a regular staff rotation.
When you feel you are ready to come back to work, feel free to contact us to see if there is any availability. In the meantime, we wish you the best in all your professional and personal endeavors.
Regards,
Adriana Lodge
