Sažetak
The discipline of bioethics systematically examines and evaluates human activity in the fields of life sciences, health, illness and death in light of ethical and moral values and principles. The aim of this study is to determine the ethical judgment of nurses through the knowledge of ethics in nursing and current nursing ethical issues, as do nurses believe whether they are autonomous in their work. An anonymous questionnaire with ten open- ended questions was distributed to 100 randomly selected nurses. Nursing ethics was concidered a professional conduct by 29% respondents. Ignorance of ethical theories was reported by 62% of respondents. The ability to work autonomously was indicated by 23% of respondents as an important ethical issue. Ethical dilemmas were reported by 64% of the respondents. In order to clarify and familiarize nurses with nursing ethics, courses need to be organized with examples from the nursing practice and establish guidelines for ethical nursing activities
