Your resume looks really good. The only thing I would suggest is possibly including the total amount of clincial hours you had at each site. Is "manikin" the correct way to spell that? I thought it was spelled mannequin. I am trying to finalize my resume. All of my background is IT related and now I'm switching to nursing.

Thank you so much. I did spell mannequin wrong!!!!!! I will also include my clincal hours as well. Thanks for the feedback.
