What are your tips for getting a hospital position? I've worked in home health and clinics my whole career and cannot get into a hospital because I don't have "experience." Resume tips? Interview tips?

Focus on highlighting pertinent skills to show you're qualified for a hospital position. There's a barrier of hospital recruiters and managers not knowing what exactly a home health and clinic nurse does. You can use key words such as prioritizing tasks and completing them in a timely manner. That will show the hiring manager how you can utilize transferrable skills into a hospital position. Also, highlight any wound care, central line, IV, infusion, foley catheter, dialysis assessment skills you have with particular patient populations such as: diabetes, renal, bariatrics, complex wounds, heart failure patients. There's a generated resume feature on Incredible health. Best of luck!
