Objectives: This descriptive study was planned to determine the conscience perceptions of nurses working in pandemic hospitals.
Methods: The study population comprised all nurses working in Sivas Numune Hospital. A personal information form and the Conscience Perception scale were used in the study. The convenience sampling method was applied, the data collection forms were uploaded to the system and a link was created. The forms were thus sent to the nurses for online completion. Informed consent was provided by the nurses and the necessary ethical and official permissions were obtained.
Results: The majority of the nurses participating in the study (95%) were female, married (66.7%), with a university degree (46.9%), and work experience of 21 years or more (35.8%). The conscience perceptions of the female nurses working during the pandemic were determined to be statistically significantly high. The education level of the nurses significantly affected the perception of conscience, with a higher level of conscience perception shown by nurses with a bachelor's degree. The conscience perception scale sub-dimension of the clinic where they worked showed a significant difference in terms of authority. There was a statistically significant increase in the authority sub-dimension of nurses working in the operating room / intensive care unit.
Conclusion: Working conditions and risks affected the conscience perceptions of professional responsibility and sensitivity of nurses who had to remain separated from their families during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Amaç: Bu çalışma pandemi hastanelerinde çalışan hemşirelerin bu süreçteki vicdan algılarının belirlenmesi amacıyla tanımlayıcı olarak planlanmıştır.
Yöntem: Araştırmanın evrenini Sivas Numune Hastanesi’nde çalışan tüm hemşireler oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma için Tanıtıcı form ve Vicdan Algısı ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Kolayda örneklem yöntemiyle yapılan çalışmada araştırmanın veri toplama formları sisteme yüklenip link oluşturulduktan sonra online olarak hemşirelere gönderilmiş ve gönüllü hemşirelerden formları doldurmaları istenmiştir. Çalışma için hemşirelerden bilgilendirilmiş onam istenerek, gereken etik ve resmi izinler alınmıştır.
Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan hemşirelerin çoğunluğunun kadın olduğu (%95), yine büyük çoğunluğunun lisans mezunu olduğu (%46,9), evli (%66,7) ve çalışma yılı 21 yıl ve üzeri olan hemşirelerin (%35,8) sayısının fazla olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca pandemi sürecinde çalışan kadın hemşirelerin vicdan algılarının istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düzeyde yüksek olduğu, hemşirelerin öğrenim durumunun vicdan algısını anlamlı düzeyde etkilediği ve lisans mezunu hemşirelerin vicdan algılarının daha yüksek olduğu, görev yapılan kliniğin de vicdan algısı ölçeği alt boyutu otorite açısından anlamlı farklılık gösterdiği belirlenmiştir. Ameliyathane/Yoğun bakım çalışanlarının otorite alt boyutunda istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir yükseklik vardır.
Sonuç: Çalışma şartları, riskler ve aileden uzak kalmak durumunda kalan hemşirelerde, mesleki sorumluluk ve duyarlılık bilinci vicdan algılarını etkilemiştir.
