This article reports results from a descriptive study involving nurses working in intensive care
units of hospitals in the province of Erzurum, eastern Turkey. A total of 110 nurses agreed to
participate in the study. The Moral Sensitivity Questionnaire and a personal information form,
which was developed by researchers in accordance with the relevant literature, were used for

that moral sensitivity is required to assist in coping with the issues. Researchers report that nurses
who were highly satisfied with their work possessed a heightened sensitivity about ethical issues
when compared with those who were dissatisfied with their profession. Key words: ethical
dilemmas, intensive care, moral sensitivity, nursing
