This study focused on moral and ethical issues experienced by critical care nurses (CCN) and their impact on retention of nursing staff. The purpose of this study was to explore relationships between the levels of moral distress experienced by CCNs and the likelihood of a nurse leaving a position (intent to turnover), as well as moderating effects of these nurses perceptions of theethical climate of the work environment on intent to turnover. Moral distress is generally defined as the experience of knowing the right thing to do, but being constrained pursuing the right course of action.
