ABSTRACT

In the continuous spread of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, front-line nurses fighting the epidemic have been experiencing mental health problems such as anxiety, insomnia, and somatization symptoms one after another. And these problems not only damage nurses' physical and mental health, but also affect the efficiency of epidemic prevention work. In order to reduce the decrease in work efficiency caused by psychological problems, this paper reviews the mental health problems and common psychological intervention methods that occur among frontline nurses in the prevention and control of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, with a view to providing frontline nurses in epidemic prevention with more scientific psychological intervention methods to maintain physical and mental health, as well as providing a reference basis for nursing managers to develop psychological interventions for nurses after the return of the epidemic fight.
