Background & Aim

promotion is important. The healthcare system, especially the members of the nurses who are active in completely different culture

conditions is of utmost importance. Professional nursing is one of the factors involved in the professional, cultural and organizational

commitment. Strong and positive culture in the organization can accept nurses to better interact with colleagues and ultimately

provide satisfaction in completing tasks and organizational objectives to be followed. The success of the organization depends on

the members and staff. Recently, researchers believe that professional commitment and organizational structures necessarily are

contradictory and are not incompatible, but can significantly correlate with each other. The purpose of this study was to determine
