Applying to CRNA school, should I include CNA work in my work experience on resume?

[Tstoltz]

I am applying to CRNA school and I am mostly wondering if I should include CNA work on my school resume. Just because I was a CNA and unit secretary ( working with physician orders) for 3 years prior to RN in the ICU and telemetry unit. Other than that I have 3 years RN in a Telemetry/Cardiac step down unit -both surgical and medical, and almost two years in a CCU. I also am working expansion/float shifts in cath lab prep/recovery since January. I know that obviously if I can do RN work, I can do CNA work, but I was wondering If I should include it to show I have been working and been around ICU and medical field for longer, or if I should just forget it all together.

Thank You

No, it does not add anything to your resume.

CNA experience won't matter to them one bit. RN experience is all that should be listed.

I stopped listing CNA work experience after I started my second (simultaneous) LPN/LVN level job. Don't list anything less than RN experience. If you don't think that is sufficient, then gain more RN experience before applying.

No, once you are employed as an RN, CNA work is irrelevant. I no longer have anything I did before I was an RN on my resume.
