The participants were 206 nurses recruited from long-term care hospitals in B metropolitan city and C city. Data were collected from January to March, 2014 and analyzed using SPSS WIN 18.0 program. The frequency of experience was 1.65±0.42, which is 4~5 times per month and once or twice per week in the problematic behavior in dementia. The frequency of burden was 1.46±0.48, which means one nurse can solve the problematic behaviors in dementia. Burnout was 2.53±0.61, and job satisfaction was 2.87±0.45. Negative correlations were found between burden and job satisfaction (r=-.256, p=.003), and between burnout and job satisfaction (r=-.718, p<.001). A factor influencing job satisfaction was burnout (β=-.735), which explained 57%. It is suggested that Intervention programs should be developed to reduce burnout and burden, and to increase job satisfaction for nurses.
