| Sumario: | Introduction: Nurses are considered protagonists in facing the Covid-19 pandemic. The development of measures that promote resilience in the work environment is essential. Objective: To analyze the association between resilience and socioeconomic, work and health characteristics of nurses in tertiary care in a municipality in the interior of Mato Grosso in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic. Method: A cross-sectional study carried out with nurses in tertiary health care. Data were collected through a socioeconomic, work and health questionnaire, resilience school and the Self Report Questionare-20. Results: Of the 101 nurses, 49.5% had a low/medium level of resilience. An indication of psychological morbidity was found in 51.5% of the sample. Female sex (p<0.001), being the head of the family (p=0.003), CLT employment relationship (p=0.031) and single shift work (p=0.034) were protective factors for low/medium resilience. On the other hand, there were risk factors, contract employment (p=0.004), nurses who did not feel protected in the performance of professional activities (p=0.001) and those who did not follow up with a psychologist/psychiatrist before the pandemic (p= 0.014). Conclusion: The nurses' level of resilience is low/medium and most showed an indication of psychological morbidity. Actions that promote a higher level of resilience in the work context of these professionals are fundamental, and that consider the associated factors pointed out in the literature. |
