METHODS: This descriptive work was carried out in a private group hospital operating in Istanbul. A "Nurse Information Form", "Teamwork Behavior Measure", and "Motivation Measure", all of which were created to determine characteristics regarding the socio-demographic and working life of nurses, were used in collecting research data. Upon obtaining the necessary institution and measure permissions, it was proceeded to the data collection stage and it was applied to 304 nurses who agreed to participate in the research. In analysis of the data, percentage, arithmetic average, frequency, standard deviation, median, minimum, maximum, Mann-Whitney U, Kruskal-Wallis, Spearman’s correlation tests were used. Statistical evaluation of the data was performed using SPSS 16.0. RESULTS: The nurses were women (78%), 20-29 years old (65.1%), single (67.1%), college/university graduates (%37.8%). The statement "Team leaders must ensure that team members help each other when necessary" received the highest point (4.26±0.988) from the "Teamwork Behavior Measure", while the statement "Helping team members is an indicator that the individual does not have much work to do" received the lowest point (2.80±1.422). The statement "I do my workfondly" received the highest point (4.20±0.972) from the "Motivation Measure", and it has been seen that the statement "I worry that I could be fired at any moment" received the lowest point (2.68±1.277). CONCLUSION: We found that there is a significant relation between nurses motivation levels and teamwork. Some characteristics of nurses regarding socio-demographic and work life affect their motivation levels and attitudes towards team work.
