Question about resume with some experience

I have a little over a year experience (15 months) on a Neuro Med/Surg unit and would like to break into telemetry or progressive care nursing. We do get some patients on telemetry, however, they are monitored by an ICU nurse.

As for my resume, I am debating on keeping my clinical rotations from school as I spent a semester on a cardiac telemetry unit and can highlight that I was introduced to telemetry monitoring during that orientation.

Is it appropriate for me to still list clinical rotations after getting some experience or should I just take it off? I feel like my resume has too much information if I leave it on, but then again, those experiences could help me..

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

    I've always heard after you get your first nursing job, you remove clinical experience from the resume since it's not pertinent info anymore.

    I would suggest taking the clinical experience off the resume and adding it to your cover letter when you apply for the position. You could use that experience to explain why you want into the field and show you learned a lot during that time.

    Good luck! :)

    I read your message about US/Canada travel nursing. I'm not able to respond in a PM since I haven't met the criteria for messaging. PM me your e-mail if you'd like.

    Stick it in a line at the bottom or something. If you have room mentioning it won't hurt.
