Summary/Abstract: The process of the development of nursing from vocation into profession, that has been completed in such over-developed nations as the USA are, actualizes the topic of the professional ethics of nursing. The author considers the connexion between nursing and ethics and ethics and nursing, including into discussion the different existant definitions of nursing, its theoretical essence and conceptual models. He continues to discuss the relation between feminist ethics and nursing, religious inspirations of the ethics of nursing, Nightingale's ethical model of nursing etc. Special interest is shown for the actual appearance of nurses' strikes in Croatia. The latter is analyzed from the ethical viewpoint with regard to recent ethical debates on the subject in bioethical literature.
