Abstract

Objective: to understand how Nursing students perceived the role of the support network in the face of their experience with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Method: descriptive study, with a qualitative approach. Data were collected between November 2021 and May 2022, through remote and in-person, audio-recorded interviews with 15 students, selected for convenience. The data were subjected to content analysis, thematic modality, and interpreted in light of Roy's adaptation model. Results: the subjects were all female, who, during the SARS-CoV-2 infection period, experienced different needs, which led to three adaptive modes: physiological, real-life function and interdependence. The informal network (family, friends, neighbors, and church members) offered instrumental, informational, emotional, and spiritual support, especially via telephone and messaging apps. Support from the formal network (healthcare services and professionals) was perceived as insufficient and, at times, inhumane. Conclusion: the family, even when distant, was the main source of support. The health system's actions were limited to punctual assistance and the provision of guidance on care, being considered insufficient in some situations.
