Introduction: The performance of nursing at the level of excellence in caring for the patient and family is formed based on the knowledge of aesthetics. This research was conducted to determine the psychometric characteristics of the Arabic version of the Aesthetics of Nursing Care Scale (ENCS). Methods: This research is a descriptive and methodological study. In this study, the aesthetic nursing care scale (ENCS) was translated using the Forward/Backward method. Face and content validity was done in a quantitative and qualitative method using the opinions of 20 members of the nursing faculty, and the ratio and content validity index (CVI, CVR) were calculated. Reliability was checked with two methods of internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha) and test-retest. Data analysis was done using the exploratory factor analysis method with a sample size of 260 hospitalized patients. Result: In the present study, all items except one item obtained the necessary CVR and CVI points according to the experts. The total reliability of the scale was 0.951 and 0.98, respectively, using Cronbach's alpha and test-retest coefficients. The results of exploratory factor analysis showed that the Arabic version of the structure tool has 4 factors and that this tool has an acceptable fit in the Iraqi Arabic culture and has good construct validity. Conclusion: The results showed that the aesthetics of nursing care scale (ENCS) after removing one item has the necessary validity and reliability in the Iraqi Arabic-speaking community and can be used as a tool to investigate the aesthetics of nursing care.
