What makes these work
Department and certificate
ICU, OT and ward nursing are hired for separately, and BLS or ACLS is checked first. Lead with both.
Unit size and safety record
Bed count and a clear medication record tell a nursing head how much responsibility you carried.
Registration is a filter
Mentioning your state council registration and your GNM or B.Sc degree answers the first screening question.
