 The study investigated the intention to leave the profession and its related factors among nurses in Kermansha, western Iran. The results showed that 49.6% of nurses had the intention to leave the profession and the mean score of their intention was 36.6 out of 60. There were no statistically significant differences between nurses who intended to leave and those who did not in terms of age, marital status, gender, type of employment, type of shift and work experience. However, there was a statistically significant association between workplace and job title and intention to leave the profession.
