Abstract: Patient care is as old as humanity?s history. Nursing care which takes patient care as its focal point is based on thousand years old roots. In the early eras, nursing care was mainly a male based business. But with time passing, woman became more dominant in nursing care. In Turkey, conversion of nursing care outputs into a business overlaps with worldwide as it starts after the Crimean War. But main progress actualized after the Turkish Republic era just like many other areas. In today?s Turkey it can be mentioned that there is a matured nursing care business. In today?s matured nursing care business era, the main topic is whether the policy issue about this occupation causes nurses? regional dispersion to become regional specialization and whether this policy issue has a relationship with socioenomical development. In this study, firstly in nurses? employment regional specialization levels is determined based on nurses? dispersion according to provinces. In the second phrase, relationship levels between LQ values which represent regional specialization levels and sege values which is the most popular scale that representing socioeconomic development in national scale, is questioned. According to the findings, it can be supported that there is a meaningful negative correlation between regional specialization in nursing care employment and socioeconomical development levels in provinces.
