OBJECTIVE： To investigate the situation and influential factors of hospital pharmacist career planning and career satisfaction and their relationship. METHODS： The questionnaire modified according to “general career planning and career satisfaction scale” was adopted for questionnaire survey among pharmacists in 5 third grade class A hospitals by simple random sampling. The factor analysis was used to test the reliability and validity of the questionnaire. The influential factors of career planning and satisfaction degree， the relationship of career planning with satisfaction degree were analyzed by multiple regression analysis and Spearman correlation coefficient. RESULTS： Totally 210 questionnaires were sent out and 198 were effectively received， with effective recovery of 94.28％. Cronbach’α value of reliability and validity test was 0.939 （＞0.6）， and KMO value was 0.905 （close to 1）. Results of survey showed that there was statistical significance in the effects of gender， age， marital status， work experience， professional title and position on career planning （P＜0.05）. There was statistical significance in the effects of age and professional title on satisfaction degree （P＜0.05）. Different dimensions of career planning （self-assessment， career awareness and action， position questions） were positively correlated with career satisfaction degree （total correlation coefficients were 0.649， 0.633， 0.694）. CONCLUSIONS： Career planning is mainly influenced by gender， age， marital status， work experience， professional title and position. Career satisfaction degree is greatly influenced by age and position. The better the career planning is， the higher the satisfaction is. It is suggested to conduct professional training of hospital pharmacists by referring to the theory and experience of management， help pharmacists to fully understand the job responsibilities and do a good job in the position of professional roles. The establishment of scientific and effective career planning management system improves self-management ability of hospital pharmacists and career satisfaction degree， and promotes the development of discipline.
