Professional Values of Social Work and its Relationship with the Organizational Culture in Hospitals from the Viewpoint of Medical Social Workers Sareh Abri[1] , Mohammad Zahedi Asl[2] , Maliheh Shiani[3], Amirmahmood Harirchi[4] Received: 11/9/2017 Accepted: 8/1/2018 Abstract This research was conducted with the aim of determining the relationship between social work professional values and organizational culture of hospitals using a survey-descriptive-correlational research method. The statistical population of this study includes all medical social workers and the statistical sample includes social workers who had a bachelor's or higher degree in social work with more than 5 years of work experience in the hospital and their selection has been through total enumeration. The Social Work professional Values quastionnaire (Morley D. Glicken professional values model) and organizational culture assessment instrument (Cameron and Quinn model) were used to collect the required information. Both questionnaires were evaluated for their reliability and validity and their SPSS software was used to process and analyze the data using the Pearson correlation coefficient test. The results show that there is a direct relationship and a relatively strong correlation between “Dignity and worth of the person”, “integrity” and “Competence” values and organizational culture. The correlation between the value of “services” and hospital organizational culture is moderate. Between the value of “justice” and the hospital organizational culture, the correlation is relatively weak, and there is an inverted and very weak relationship between the value of “importance of human relationships” and hospital organizational culture. Generally, the correlation coefficient between the professional values of social work and organizational culture of hospitals indicates a direct relationship and a relatively strong correlation between these two variables. The results emphasize the equivalence of the professional values of social work and the organizational culture of hospitals. Therefore, policy-making in the field of healthcare is recommended in order to strengthen these values to improve the quality of social services in hospitalsis.
