Abstract

Nurses' professional and ethical performances are influenced by the health organizations' environment, and high quality and holistic care can only be provided by observing the principles of professional ethics and organizational commitment. Therefore, this study aimed at investigating the relationship between professional ethics and organizational commitment in nurses. This descriptive-analytic study was conducted in hospitals affiliated to Shiraz University of Medical Sciences (SUMS) in 2019 in Iran. The study participants included 210 public ward nurses selected using the stratified random sampling method. Data were collected using Petty Professional Ethics and Allen-Meyer Organizational Commitment questionnaires, and then analyzed by SPSS V.25. Both the mean score of the nurses' professional ethics (102.21 ± 10.89) and the mean score of the nurses' organizational commitment (95.30 ± 16.54) were at high levels. Moreover, a direct and significant relationship was found between professional ethics and organizational commitment (P= 0.009, r = 0.179). In other words, a positive correlation was found between professional ethics and organizational commitment. Considering the relationship between professional ethics and organizational commitment in nurses, managers should enhance nurses' level of adherence to ethical principles, organizational commitment and organizational attachment. Additionally, training courses can help improve nurses' professional capabilities, and hence enhancing the quality of providing healthcare services.

护士对医疗机构职业道德与组织承诺关系的看法。
护士的职业道德表现受卫生组织环境的影响,只有遵守职业道德原则和组织承诺,才能提供高质量和全面的护理。因此,本研究旨在探讨护士职业道德与组织承诺的关系。这项描述性分析研究于2019年在伊朗设拉子医学科学大学(sum)附属医院进行。研究对象为210名公立病房护士,采用分层随机抽样方法。使用Petty Professional Ethics问卷和Allen-Meyer组织承诺问卷收集数据,然后使用SPSS V.25进行分析。护士职业道德平均得分(102.21±10.89)分和护士组织承诺平均得分(95.30±16.54)分均处于较高水平。此外,职业道德与组织承诺之间存在显著的直接关系(P= 0.009, r = 0.179)。换句话说,职业道德与组织承诺之间存在正相关。考虑到护士职业道德与组织承诺的关系,管理者应提高护士对职业道德原则、组织承诺和组织依恋的遵守程度。此外,培训课程有助于提高护士的专业能力,从而提高提供医疗服务的质量。
