Touching up my resume

US

Hello all! Just as the title suggests, I am looking to apply for a new job and need to touch up my resume. However, my current job is my only RN experience and I’ve been here for nearly ten years. Prior to this I worked in automotive retail, I was a valet driver, prep cook, and somewhere in the middle I have my only “relevant” experience in being a PT tech for some years.

My question is, when building a resume for a new job, should I include past non-relevant work experience, only go back so far, or only include relevant experience (ie just my current job and my time as a pt tech)? TIA ✌🏼
