Overview
A resume for nursing portfolio consists of a lot of detail that an ordinary resume cannot hold. A portfolio resume usually starts with a summary statement and then goes on to explain in detail each aspect of a candidate’s work, education, and special skills.
A nurse wanting to make a resume of her portfolio will need to mention her certifications and awards and honors along with her experience and educational background.
