However, these factors may also contribute to various stereotypes that healthcare professionals hold towards older adults, potentially hindering the recognition of patients' individuality. The aim of this study was to investigate possible associations between nurses' characteristics, ethical competence, perceived ethical climate and stereotypes towards older adults in long-term care settings.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Methods</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>This was a cross sectional survey study. Nurses working in long-term care settings for older adults in Finland participated in the study between 2024 and 2025. The survey included three self-administered instruments: the Ethical Competence Questionnaire, [Hospital] Ethical Climate Survey and Stereotype Content and Strength Survey.

The participants rated their ethical competence and perceived ethical climate of their workplace as moderate or good. Both factors were statistically significantly associated with positive stereotypes towards older adults but not with negative stereotypes. Most participants (89%) held employee positions and had vocational degrees (65%). Younger age was associated with stronger stereotypes. When the independent variables of ethical competence and ethical climate were tested together, ethical competence alone no longer explained positive stereotypes, but ethical climate did, even after adjusting for age.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusion</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>This study confirms that nurses' ethical competence and perceived ethical climate support each other. Strengthening these elements can help alleviate stereotypes about the residents in long-term care settings. Maintaining and developing these factors can promote the delivery of high-quality, individualised care. To mitigate stereotypes regarding LTCS residents, the nurse manager can create structures that strengthen ethical competence and support an ethical climate.
