These included their interest in nursing, their job position, the shifts they worked, how long they had been in their current job, their overall nursing experience, and their education level. Interestingly, how much they liked nursing made the biggest difference in their comfort levels. This study shows that nurses in Kashan's teaching hospitals are moderately comfortable.

Also, hospital managers should pay close attention to what affects nurses' comfort to improve the quality of care.
