Objectives:
to analyze how the COVID-19 pandemic affected the Fundamental Care provided by nurses to hospitalized patients in a public hospital.
Methods:
qualitative, descriptive, exploratory research. Twenty-four nurses were interviewed who cared for patients with COVID-19 in a public hospital in the capital city of the state of Paraná, from January to February 2022. Creswell Content Analysis was applied to the data, operationalized by the MaxQda software and in light of the Fundamental Care theory.
Results:
three categories were obtained with their respective dimensions: Physical Care (Personal Hygiene; Comfort and Mobilization; Eating and drinking; Rest and sleep; Safety and Medication Management), Psychosocial Care (Communication; Privacy; Dignity, respect and beliefs; Emotional well-being) and Relational Care (Active listening; Empathy and compassion; Engagement, support and involvement with families and caregivers and work with patients).
Final Considerations:
the pandemic period may have provided an opportunity to look at the nurse-patient-care relationship, especially based on the theory of Fundamental Care.
