Abstract
Nurses, one of the most important members of health care services, are effective in determining the performance of health enterprises. To increase performance, businesses should give great importance to their employees and make an effort to improve them. Mentoring, which has an important place in the development of career and psychosocial functions, is important for both individual and organizational performance. This study was planned to investigate the effects of career and psychosocial functions on employee performance. 352 nurses working in various hospitals in Turkey participated in the research. The collected data were analyzed with statistical package programs used in social sciences. As a result of the analysis, a positive and significant relationship was observed between career function and psychosocial functions and employee performance. According to the regression result, all sub-dimensions of the career function and psychosocial functions do not affect the performance related to satisfaction. Developing new skills relationships, and psychosocial functions have a weak and positive effect on work-related performance.
