Embroidery on lab coat

Published

Hi, my dad and I are having a discussion/debate on what is the appropriate title to give me now and have embroidered on a lab coat.

The options are, (My name), BSN, RN or (My name), BS, BSN, RN since I have a prior BS in another field.

I just said BSN, RN 'cause I figure the letters that most nurses carry after their name are the ones relevant to the field of Nursing. I never called myself "(My name), BS" prior to getting my Nursing degree, so why would I now? But he says that from what he's seen, nurses like to carry as many letters as possible after their name (not sure who he was talking to to get that info) so he thinks I should put all that applies.

Opinions?

I would only put RN, BSN if it were me.

Thanks. I will tell him that. I think he's just having a "proud father" moment, lol
