My résumé shows a gap from a layoff and some health issues. I am in Cleveland, in case local advice matters. I have done some volunteering and a course during that time. How did you handle it on your résumé?

A short, honest line such as 'family caregiving' is enough for most employers. They mostly want to know you are ready now.
