Summer Camp Nurse Resume
Summer camp nurses mostly work for children participating in the camp. However, the age of participants varies depending on the camp theme. Camp nurses must have some practical experience and education in nursing. Usually, licensed practical nurses opt for this job as they don't want to see and care for the same patient over a period of days. The role of camp nurses is to take and store medical details of children, provide them first aid and medications during injury and illness, attend emergencies and arrange for hospitalization.
If you enjoy working with children, and providing counseling on various health issues, get your nursing license and a year's experience in a clinical environment. This sample resume is to help you for applying for the job.
