Summary/Abstract: With the gradual expansion of the nurse scope of duties there is a necessity for a new definition of a nurse role in the therapeutic team. New skills must go hand in hand with the predisposition and extensive knowledge not only in medicine, but also in the management skills. The aim of research is to analyze the impact of different factors, which determine motivation and job satisfaction within their new role. The research comprised 200 nurses: 100 employees of public health care facilities and 100 nurses hired in private medical sector. The method used in the study was a questionnaire survey. The χ2 test was used to check hypotheses. The majority of nurses (total 80%) made a conscious choice of profession. 80.5% of respondents indicated satisfaction with their work, most of them are employed in private medical facilities. Nurses employed in private medical sector are more satisfied and more motivated for job than nurses employed in public health care facilities. The reason to this conclusion may well be better work organization in private health care institutions. Job satisfaction affects work incentives and quality of services. Except money motivating factor can be for example training
