The data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficients with 5% significance and adjusted in a linear model, using the statistical software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences 20. The variables Age ( 10.70%) and Psychosocial Interventions for Anxiety and Stress Management (95.08%) showed significant differences. The sample consisted of 61 nursing professionals, the majority of whom were women (80%) with a mean age of 33 years. It highlights the importance of psychosocial care aimed at nursing professionals for the management of Mental Health disorders, whether during or after the pandemic, seeking interventions to minimize the suffering of these workers.
