Introduction: Combining science and art with aesthetic is an important feature in the quality of nursing care. On the other hand, self-compassion is one of the important components of mental health and can be a powerful source and a principle to increase the quality of caring for others, especially in the main components of kindness and empathy. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship self-compassion and aesthetic care in nurses
Methods: This descriptive-correlational study and the statistical population of the study consisted of nurses working in educational and medical centers in Isfahan. In this study, 95 nurses and 285 patients were selected by convenience sampling method. Self-compassion questionnaires and Esthetics Nursing care Scale were used. Data analysis was performed in two ways: descriptive and inferential. At the inferential level, Pearson-Speirman correlation coefficients and Chi-square test were used. Analyzes were performed at an error level of 0.05 using SPSS software version 22.
Results: The mean and standard deviation of nurseschr('39') self-compassion was 75.68± 5.70 and moderate. The highest score was in the self-kindness subscale and the lowest score was in the isolationism subscale. In this study, nurseschr('39') aesthetic care with a mean and standard deviation of  26.58 ±  135.74 was desirable.The results showed a significant and indirect relationship between the isolationism subscale and aesthetic-based nursing care (p = 0.034).
Conclusion: In this study, nurses had a moderate level of self-compassion and with increasing the isolationism of nurses, the quality of aesthetic care decreased. It is suggested that nursing officials pay more attention to the development of nurseschr('39') self- compassionate in order to increase the quality of care.
