Abstract
This study was planned descriptively in order to determine nurses' perceptions of the working environment and the factors affecting it. This study was conducted with the participation of 186 nurses who worked in a university hospital between 17.05.2021 and 24.05.2021 and agreed to participate in the study. The data in the study were collected using a questionnaire consisting of 21 questions that determined the sociodemographic and professional characteristics of the nurses and the Working Environment Scale. One-way analysis of variance test, Kruskal–Wallis test and Mann–Whitney U test were used in the evaluation of the data. The Working Environment Scale scores were determined to differ according to certain sociodemographic and occupational characteristics such as the service that nurses work in, working year, manner of work, the state of willingness to choose the profession, satisfaction with the service they worked in and the average number of patients they gave daily care.
