Abstract

Objective: It’s imperative that organizations that want to exist in the business world where competition is intense and that want to ensure should create a positive ethical climate perception. The aim of this study was to determine the level of perceptions of the ethical climate of nurses who work in a private hospital and to determine whether ethical climate perceptions differ according to demographic characteristics. Methods: The study was conducted between July-September 2018 on 154 nurses working at two private hospitals(in Istanbul and Yalova). Research data were collected from nurses working in these hospitals. This is a descriptive cross-sectional study. Results: According to findings, it was determined that the ethical climate perception of the participants was generally positive. In dimensions, ethical climate perception was found most positive in patient dimension, while most negative in physicians dimension. At findings, the perception of ethical climate according to the gender of the participants differed statistically in the managers dimension and perception of ethical climate according to working time in hospital differed in patients dimension(p<0.05). Perception of ethical climate didn’t differed significantly with age, educational and marital status of participants (p>0.05). Conclusions: It was determined that the hospital ethical climate perceptions of the nurses in the study were highly positive, and this perception was influenced by gender and the year of work. The sub-dimension, where the ethical climate perception was the most negative, was the physician dimension. It’s thought that the results obtained can be a guide in supporting positive ethical behavior.
