From a legal standpoint, nurse-to-nurse relationships must adhere to professional standards of conduct. Professional conduct includes treating all colleagues respectfully and courteously regardless of their position or credentials. Nurses are responsible for fostering a safe and inclusive environment free from negative behaviors such as bullying and discrimination. Nurses should strive to promote an atmosphere of collaboration and mutual respect. Nurses must maintain professionalism in all forms of communication, whether it be conversations, emails, or any other means of interaction. Furthermore, nurses should know their rights and responsibilities under local laws and regulations regarding workplace harassment and discrimination. Generally, nurses must maintain professional boundaries, prioritizing their role as healthcare providers rather than friends or family. Nurses should maintain appropriate professional behavior during work hours, such as refraining from gossiping or derogatory comments about fellow nurses. Finally, nurses should respect each other's rights and consider cultural and religious differences among their peers.
