Nurses are in direct contact with patients with COVID-19 and have faced much tension with the rapid spread of coronavirus. This study aimed to explore the safe coping strategies of nurses when facing the COVID-19 pandemic.
In this qualitative study, data were collected from September 20 to December 20, 2020, in Isfahan (Iran) through individual semi-structured interviews with 12 nurses working in the five referral centers for patients with COVID-19. Informants were selected via purposeful sampling and interviewed in one or several sessions at the appropriate time and place. The interviews continued until data saturation. All interviews continued until no new data were added to the continuous content analysis. Data analysis was performed using conventional content analysis based on Graneheim and Lundman's approach. We used Guba and Lincoln's criteria (including credibility, transferability, conformability, and dependability) to guarantee trustworthiness and rigor.
Safe coping strategies for nurses were discovered in two categories of "wise liberation" and "care," and six subcategories. "Wise liberation" consisted of four subcategories: "living in the moment," "accepting the inner and outer world," "life enrichment," and "building opportunities." "Care" contained two subcategories: "caring for others" and "caring for oneself."
Discovering safe coping strategies for nurses could set the stage for special educational-therapeutic interventions so they can better understand their experiences and take advantage of the best coping strategies.
护士与新冠肺炎患者直接接触，随着冠状病毒的迅速传播，他们面临着诸多压力。本研究旨在探讨护士在面对新冠肺炎疫情时的安全应对策略。
在这项定性研究中，于2020年9月20日至12月20日在伊朗伊斯法罕，通过对在五个新冠肺炎患者转诊中心工作的12名护士进行个人半结构化访谈来收集数据。通过目的抽样选择受访者，并在合适的时间和地点进行一次或多次访谈。访谈持续进行直至数据饱和。所有访谈持续进行，直到在连续内容分析中没有新的数据补充。基于格兰内海姆和伦德曼的方法，使用常规内容分析法进行数据分析。我们使用古巴和林肯的标准（包括可信度、可转移性、一致性和可靠性）来确保研究的可信度和严谨性。
护士的安全应对策略分为“明智解脱”和“关怀”两类，以及六个子类别。“明智解脱”包括四个子类别：“活在当下”“接受内外世界”“丰富生活”和“创造机会”。“关怀”包含两个子类别：“关爱他人”和“关爱自己”。
发现护士的安全应对策略可为特殊的教育治疗干预奠定基础，以便他们能更好地理解自己的经历并采用最佳应对策略。
