Abstract

The purpose of this study was to develop codes of ethics for Iranian nurses. Researchers used mixed methods in four stages during 2009-2010 to develop a series of ethical codes for Iranian nurses in Isfahan, Iran. 55 ethical codes in 12 categories were extracted and listed as (1) believe in human dignity, (2) respect for patients’ privacy, (3) empathy for patient, (4) autonomy in decision making, (5) accurate and precise nursing care, (6) being conscience, (7) human relationship, (8) professional commitment, (9) promoting justice, (10) preventing harm and/or injury, (11) honesty and confidentiality, and (12) maintaining and promoting professional values. Study findings serve to the global nursing community on the Islamic view of ethics. © 2015, © The Author(s) 2015.
