Abstract
Background: One of the main pillars of sustainable development is health and wellness which is an integral part of improving the quality of life. Lack of hygiene facilities and human resources and their inadequate distribution in urban and rural areas are major problems in providing health services in third world countries. The main and important reasons for inequalities in the distribution of health sector resources include inappropriate and poor budget allocation to the health sector, inadequate and long-term planning. This study was conducted to determine the degree of development of Abadan, Khorramshahr and Shadegan cities in terms of health indicators using numerical taxonomy model.
Methods: This descriptive study was conducted in 3 cities of Abadan, Khorramshahr and Shadegan in Khuzestan province in 2016. The data collection tool was a checklist containing information needed to calculate 15 health indices that were collected from Abadan Medical School Deputy of Health. The numerical taxonomy of these cities was evaluated in terms of degree of development of health indicators.
Results: According to the values of the upper and lower limits of homogeneity distance and the values of the shortest distance between cities, it was found that all cities (regions) were homogeneous and were in the same group. Finally, the results showed that Abadan is considered to be developed (0.47), Shadegan under developed (0.78) and Khorramshahr undeveloped (0.81).
Conclusion: Regarding the results obtained for improving the health status and managing the health sector, it is suggested that a comprehensive development-based program to be developed for reducing gaps and inequalities in terms of health indicators and to pay specific attention to the main development indicators of health care system based on population in each region.

Abstract
Background: Nurses may be threatened with professional moral courage while providing care to patients with Covid-19. The present study aimed to evaluate the professional moral courage of nurses caring for patients with Covid-19.
Methods: This study was a cross-sectional study. In this study, 200 nurses working in COVID wards participated by convenience sampling method. Data collection tools were personal profile forms and valid and reliable tool of professional moral courage. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics (ANOVA And T-TEST) under SPSS software version 16.
Results: The overall score of nurses' professional moral courage was 56.25±7.02. Other findings of the study indicated that among the personal characteristics of nurses, professional moral courage and organizational position (P = 0.005) and nursing work experience in the COVID ward (P = 0.003) had a statistically significant relationship.
Conclusion: Considering the average state of moral courage and the fact that the average score of supervisors is lower than that of nurses, it is obligatory for nursing managers to plan for the promotion of professional moral courage of nurses to face future crises. The most important of these actions can be holding educational workshops with ethical themes for nurses and students so that they can obtain professional moral courage in their profession in more desirable way.
