    AimTo investigate nurses' satisfaction with their work environment and moral stress levels as effects of systematic clinical nursing supervision.BackgroundNurses have identified high workload, low influence over work assignment, limited avenues for skills development and diminishing support from supervisors as sources of considerable tension resulting in deterioration of work conditions and decreased job satisfaction.MethodsThis study is a descriptive-correlational study. Data were analysed by means of descriptive statistics.ResultsThe major result indicates moral stress in the workplace. It was found that a significant relationship existed between moral sensitivity and systematic nursing clinical supervision.ConclusionThe results point to the need to support nurses in developing personal qualities, integrated knowledge and self-awareness, which is in line with the effects of clinical nursing supervision reported in other studies.
