title: Is workplace culture an excuse for poor care?
abstract: This article looks at the issue of nurses' own responsibility for their actions. Negative behaviour can be explained by external factors, such as culture and the influence of others, or by internal ones, including a person's own moral compass. Within the context of the Francis report, this article raises questions about how we can ensure that nurses adhere to their code of conduct.
