Abstract
Nurses' professional values directly impact patient care quality. This quantitative study used the Nursing Professional Values Scale 3 to assess values in 3 domains: caring, activism, and professionalism. The results showed variations in scores based on ethnicity and education. Although a strong emphasis on caring and professionalism was evident, the potential for growth in activism presents a compelling call to action. The implications and recommendations for fostering a skilled and ethical nursing workforce are discussed.
