description Background & Objective: Job satisfaction is the person;aposs attitude toward his/her work. Increasing nurses;apos job satisfaction result in better quality of nursing care and reduces the number of nurses who leave their job. Conditions of different wards of hospitals can affect nurses;apos job satisfaction.
