Summary/Abstract: Objectives. The main objective of this study was to analyze the perception of subjective and objective quality of life among our respondents. We wanted to determine which of the methods used by nurses in clinical practice and characterize the tools that respondents considered most important in assessing the overall quality of life. Methods. The research was conducted in the form of a questionnaire WHOQOL-BREF. The research sample consisted of 155 nurses. The statistical processing of the results, we used the Mann-Whitney test, Chi-square test, t-test and descriptive statistics. Results. Based on the statistical processing of data, we found significant differences in perception between subjective and objective quality of life for nurses (p-0.001). The Scale of life meaningfulness was known to 17.1 % of university-educated nurses and 25 % of secondary educated nurses. There weren’t significant differences between the selected group of respondents (p-0.237). There are significant differences in the examined area of knowledge of the nurses and their completed education (p-0.001). Conclusion. From the results of the research, we found that nurses know only some methods of measuring the quality of life. Methods of measuring the quality of life in nursing make it possible to detect a number of problems in patients.
