Hey all—any healthcare folks in the PDX area have advice on explaining a resume gap after 8/2025? I worked in a local clinic lab and enrolled in their CCMA program but was terminated in 8/2025. Since then, I’ve worked at two clinics and was recently laid off. What’s the best way to frame this for future employers?
