To clarify factors related to ,job satisfaction of visiting nurses, a questionnaire research was conducted in 436 visiting nurses. 164 answers were valid. ① Subjects’ job satisfaction was 62.8 （±19.3） mm. ②Those who had support for housework were more satisfied more than those who did met. ③ In working situation, the lesser the degree of workng burden, the more they satisfied they felt. ④In working circumstances, the more they worked in workplaces that had a training system, the more highly satisfied they felt. From these results, reduction of wQrking burdens other than nursing jobs, making an environment that enables them to concentrate on nursing and arranging’ a suthcient training system were thought to improve job satisfaction of visiting nurses. These rsults suggest necessity to improve support systems for visiting nurses who are working full-time in a responsible position and are prone to hold jobs other than nursing.
