The study aimed to determine the mental health, job performance and satisfaction of nurses in uniformed service. Moreover, it sought to assess the significant difference in the mental health, job performance and satisfaction of nurses according to their profile. In addition, the relationship of these variables was also analyzed. The study utilized a descriptive quantitative approach and total enumeration sampling technique to identify the level of mental health, job performance and satisfaction of 50 uniformed health personnel assigned in the different military offices in the City of Bacolod. Descriptive and inferential statistics were employed in analyzing the collected data. The study found out that there was no significant difference between nurses in uniformed service’ age, sex, length of service and marital status as correlated with mental health, job satisfaction and job performance when grouped according to their profile. Conversely, the study implied that as employee’s performance increases, job satisfaction also increases.
