Posted: Jul 03, 2018
Abstract
The intersection of organizational culture and ethical nursing practice represents a critical yet underexplored domain in healthcare research. While substantial literature exists on both organizational culture in healthcare settings and nursing ethics as separate constructs, the dynamic interplay between these elements remains poorly understood through conventional research methodologies. Traditional approaches have predominantly relied on self-reported survey data, ethnographic observations, and qualitative interviews, which while valuable, present limitations in scalability, objectivity, and the ability to capture complex relational patterns across large healthcare systems. This research introduces an innovative computational framework that leverages artificial intelligence and natural language processing to examine this relationship at an unprecedented scale and depth. Healthcare organizations operate within complex adaptive systems where cultural norms, values, and practices significantly influence clinical decision-making and patient care quality. Nursing professionals, as the largest segment of the healthcare workforce, navigate ethical challenges daily within these organizational contexts. The ethical dimensions of nursing practice extend beyond conventional bioethical principles to include relational ethics, care
