Hi,
A lot of my coworkers have email signatures that list their credentials after their name. I am an RN with a BSN, I also have a BFA, and I'm a board certified psychiatric mental health nurse (PMH-BC) According to a nursing world article, the highest education would come first, second degree can be listed second, then certifications in order of relevance to practice after degrees. When looking into creating my signature, it appears I would write "my name," BSN, BFA, RN, PMH-BC but I wanted some feedback to ensure that's correct. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!
