Objectives: This study attempted to identify the effects of job esteem, nursing practice environment, and communication within organizations on hospital nurses’ quality of nursing services. Methods: The sample comprised 210 nurses from four general hospitals with 100-500 beds. Data were collected using self-directed questionnaires and analyzed using t-tests, Pearson’s correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression. Results: Job esteem, nursing practice environment, and communication within organizations were positively correlated with the quality of nursing services. Stepwise regression analysis identified job esteem (β=.533, p<.001) and communication within organizations (β=.280, p<.001) as factors affecting the quality of nursing services, with a total explanatory power of 58.0%. Conclusions: To enhance the quality of nursing services for hospital nurses, it is necessary to develop and implement an education program that can strengthen communication within organizations and promote job esteem.
