Psychological Coping During a Pandemic for Registered Nurses
Life is not always easy—especially now, as we are adapting to changes in our personal & work lives brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. Nurses do not have to figure out how to navigate these areas or face these challenges on their own. Relationships, work, finances, & health are common areas that may become challenged & strained. The state of these areas may affect how we think & feel about ourselves & the world. During a pandemic, it is not uncommon to experience strong & difficult emotions. What was once considered routine or simple may now seem like a huge or impossible obstacle.
