Nursing is a key sector of health care teams as they have a close and continuous link with patients. This irreplaceable role of nurses did not emerge with the covid-19 pandemic, but it became much more visible given their active role in the tasks of tracing, covid testing, care during hospitalisations, communication with relatives and vaccination campaigns. This article will study the representations of the sector given the modifications in work routines after the covid pandemic. We will investigate the activities that have increased and changed since the pandemic and focus on two emerging issues: the doubts, especially at the beginning of the pandemic, about biosecurity measures and uncertainties about the treatments to be followed. We will then review the strategies implemented, individually and collectively, to cope with adversity during hospitalisation, such as palliative care.
