How do i write nurse practitioner-cardiology as an abbreviation starting with NP?
The answer depends on where you're writing it, and on state regulations and your board certification. Since cardiology isn't a board certification for NPs, but a practice area, I would suggest writing NP, Cardiology. Check with ANCC or AANP and with your state Board of Nursing for information specific to your situation. (Some nurses in our state have been required to change their business cards, etc., due to regulatory requirements about the use of the title.)
