Abstract
Considering the advances in today's world, the increased complexity of diseases and longer life expectancy, nurses experience a great deal of moral distress. One factor that is likely to contribute to the development of moral distress is the ethical climate prevailing in hospitals. This study aimed to assess the relationship between nurses' perceptions of moral distress and the ethical climate in Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences in Yazd. This correlational descriptive study used the Moral Distress Scale (MDS) and Hospital Ethical Climate Survey (HECS) to examine 370 nurses working in a number of hospitals including Shahid Sadooghi, Shahid Rahnemun, Shahid Afshar and Savaneh Sukhteghi. Data analysis was performed using SPSS18 and descriptive and analytical statistics. Findings showed that the intensity of perceived moral distress among nurses was 3.41±1.28, and their perceptions of the ethical climate were 3.22±0.78. There was a significant negative relationship between nurses’ perception of moral distress and the ethical climate (P=0.00). The findings of this study suggest that development of plans to improve the ethical climate prevailing in hospitals might decreases nurses’ perceived moral distress.

Abstract
The ethical climate in hospitals can influence nurses' ethical decisions. In other words, in the hospital where the nurse cannot use his moral courage, the patient's rights and interests are gradually ignored. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the relationship between perception of ethical climate and moral courage of nurses working in hospitals affiliated to Shahid Sadoughi University of Yazd in 2019. This was a descriptive-analytical study. A total of 204 nurses working in hospitals affiliated to Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences in Yazd were included in the study by census sampling. Data were collected using demographic questionnaire, Professional Moral Courage (PMC), and Hospital Ethical Climate Survey (HECS) and analyzed by SPSS 18 software. The results showed that the mean score of ethical climate (3.35 ± 0.62) of 5 and the mean score of moral courage was 56.37 ± 5.46 out of 75. There was no significant relationship between ethical climate and moral courage (P≥0.05). Of demographic characteristics, gender had a significant relationship with the mean score of ethical climate (<0.05), but other demographic characteristics did not have a significant relationship with ethical climate and moral courage (>0.05). Considering influence of environments supporting nurses’ moral courage on optimal care to patients, development of plans by managers to promote nurses’ moral courage can lead to beneficial effects.
