This paper examines the perception of moral issues in nursing as presented in the literature and in themes of meetings, discussions and study days devoted to the subject. It offers an account of moral issues perceived by nursing students and qualified nurses as being relevant to discussions of moral aspects in nursing. The second part of this paper presents a closer examination of the problems related to professional truth telling and deception as an illustration of an ‘everyday’ moral issue in nursing and in health care generally.
