When reading a registered nurse resume, the healthcare recruiter will look for the type of training you have received, abilities to operate medical equipment, specialization you hold, and nursing care provided to patients. When you focus on these things when writing the resume, you will be making it easy for the recruiter in taking decision on your selection. While it is understood that the duties and responsibilities of an RN vary depending on the work setting and your specialty, your resume must showcase daily nursing care such as observing and recording vital signs of patients, performing diagnostic tests and physical exams, collecting medical histories of patients, counseling and educating patients and their families, administering medications and IVs, and collaborating with the medical team for optimizing patient care.
