Who this suits

A safe default for healthcare roles and for any application going through a large employer's careers portal, where the first reader is software rather than a person.

How it handles ATS parsing

Single column with a linear reading order, conventional section headings, and no layout tables. Contact details sit in the body text rather than a page footer, because footer content lives outside the text layer and many parsers drop it entirely.

What you can change

Accent colour, font body, font heading, spacing, scale, line, section order, which sections appear, page size (A4 or Letter), and every word of the text. Nothing here is locked behind a payment.

How to write a nursing CV in Ward

Nurse recruiters look for registration, the setting you worked in and the patients you cared for. Ward is compact, so a long clinical history still fits on one page without losing the detail that matters.

Sections, in this order

Registration number and issuing body
Professional summary — setting, years and specialty
Clinical skills
Experience — unit type, bed count and patient ratio
Education
Certifications — BLS, ACLS and specialist courses
Languages

Bullet points that work

Cared for [two to three] ventilated patients per shift on a [40-bed] intensive care unit.
Introduced a [central-line checklist] that the unit adopted as standard practice.
Precepted [four] newly qualified nurses each rotation.

Figures in [brackets] are placeholders. Use your own, and only ones you could explain in an interview.

Mistakes to avoid

Leaving out the unit type and size — "staff nurse" alone says very little.
Listing tasks every nurse does instead of what was particular to your ward.
