Abstract
Session presented on Friday, March 17, 2017:
The purpose of this work is to examine the barriers in both civilian and military healthcare environments that prevents a nurse to act in a morally comforting manner and the moral values that are present in moral distress experiences. Identification of specific barriers and values within the context of moral distress may lead to crucial interventions that could lessen the effects of moral distress on nurses.
