Wikipedia, List of nursing credentials:"A nurse's postnominal (listed after the name) credentials usually follow his or her name in this order:
Highest earned academic degree in or related to nursing (e.g. "MSN")
Nursing licensure (e.g. "RN")
Nursing certification (e.g. "CCRN")
Generally credentials are listed from most to least permanent. A degree, once earned, cannot be taken away. State licensure is only revoked for serious professional misconduct. Certifications generally must be periodically renewed by examination or the completion of a prescribed number of continuing education units (CEUs).
Nurses may also hold non-nursing credentials including academic degrees. These are usually omitted unless they are related to the nurse's job. For instance, a staff nurse would likely not list an MBA, but a nurse manager might choose to do so.
Nursing credentials are separated from the person's name (and from each other) with commas. There are usually no periods within the credentials. (e.g. "BSN" not "B.S.N.")"
