The identified challenges still appear to be similar on a global scale. The present cross\u2010sectional study investigated nurses' challenges in meeting professional standards in tertiary healthcare and explored the link between nurses' values and the underlying reasons for these challenges. Data were collected from 500 nurses at a state university hospital using three tools: \u201cNurse Introduction Form\u201d for sociodemographic and work\u2010related information, \u201cProfessionalism Form\u201d to assess understanding of professionalism criteria and barriers, and \u201cNurses' Professional Values Scale.\u201d Results show a positive relationship between the attainability of professional standards and values. The most significant obstacle hindering the achievement of professional standards is systemic. Nurses lack awareness of professional values and are dissatisfied with their profession, especially due to negative working conditions and low income. Due to a lack of authorization, nurses are often unable to provide services fully in line with professional standards. Additionally, this lack of authorization can lead to deviations from their defined job responsibilities. Nurses have limited autonomy and decision\u2010making power despite prioritizing values like human dignity. Meeting professional standards is linked to strongly holding professional values. The relationships between negative factors and NPVS scores show how these issues shape nurses' perception of professionalism.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/nin.70072","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,3]],"date-time":"2025-12-03T07:46:16Z","timestamp":1764747976000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Between Ideal and Reality: A Cross\u2010Sectional Study of Nurses' Professional Values and Barriers to Professionalism in T\u00fcrkiye"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"33","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1014-7615","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Burcin","family":"Demircioglu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine Bursa Uludag University Bursa T\u00fcrkiye"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9807-9292","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elif","family":"Atici","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical Ethics and History of Medicine Department, Faculty of Medicine Bursa Uludag University Bursa T\u00fcrkiye"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_14_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/jpnu.2001.25913"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_14_3_1","first-page":"235","article-title":"Occupational Professionalism and the Case of Nurses as the Members of the Profession","volume":"9","author":"Adiguzel O.","year":"2011","journal-title":"Journal of Administrative Sciences"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1466-7657.2007.00555.x"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_14_5_1","first-page":"151","article-title":"Professionalism: Concept Analyse","volume":"7","author":"Alt\u0131ok H.
