This is a descriptive study carried out to determine teamwork attitudes and job motivations of intensive care nurses and to investigate the relationship between these 2 variables. Material and Methods: The population of the study consisted of the nurses working at coronavirus disease-2019 intensive care units in Türkiye. The sample included 301 nurses, who voluntarily accepted to participate in the study. The data were collected by "Personal Information Form", "Teamwork Attitudes Scale" and "Nurse Job Motivation Scale" between April 10, 2021 and May 30, 2021. Snowball sampling method was used. Descriptive statistics and comparative analyzes were utilized to evaluate data. Results: Total score received by the nurses from the Teamwork Attitudes Scale was 118.17±7.65, whereas their total score from the Nurse Job Motivation Scale was 65.26±5.57. A statistically significant positive relationship (r=0.249) was concluded between nurses' job motivation and their teamwork attitudes (p<0.05). Conclusion: The teamwork attitudes and job motivation of the nurses were found to be at a good level above the mean score. Nurses spend more time with team members than normal working days due to the busy working time during the pandemic period. Accordingly, the nurses may be reported to be aware of the importance of working with an understanding and highly motivated team in this process.
