Nurse Email Signature
Nursing emails travel between colleagues, physicians, and administrators. Lead with credentials and unit so anyone can place you instantly, then keep a tight HIPAA-aware footer.
What every Nurse signature needs
- Full name + credentials (RN, BSN, MSN, NP)
- Unit or specialty and hospital name
- Work extension or unit line only
- Charge nurse / supervisor escalation line if relevant
- HIPAA confidentiality footer
What to avoid
- Personal mobile numbers
- Personal social handles
- Patient photos or identifiers of any kind
Recommended style
Minimal template — single column, no photo, hospital logo at the top.

Priya Raman, RN, BSN
Charge Nurse · Medical-Surgical Unit 4B
