    <abstract locale="en_US">Professionalism impacts professional identity, staff efficiency, and patient care quality. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the professional behavior and climate in a teaching hospital in Iran. A cross-sectional study was performed among faculty members, nursing staff, and specialized residents. The study used the validated 30-item "Medical Professionalism Climate in Clinical Settings" questionnaire developed by Asghari et al., containing two domains: adherence to professional behavior, and perceptions of the professional climate. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 26. The study population consisted of 271 individuals working at a teaching hospital, 44.3% male and 55.7% female, averaging 34.79 years in age.The results showed there was a relationship between the total mean score, the professional behavior score, the professional climate score, and the participants' professional titles (P-value &lt; 0.001), as well as the duration of their work experience in the department (P-value: 0.005, P-value: 0.039, P-value: 0.001, respectively). The faculty members achieved the best scores, followed by the residents, nurses, and nursing assistants. Analysis of the professional behavior scores revealed strengths and weaknesses among the medical staff. More training is recommended to enhance skills and promote positive behavior to boost hospital staff's job satisfaction and sense of belonging.</abstract>
