Objective: to understand the meanings to hope attributed by Nursing professionals in the context
of the COVID-19 pandemic. Method: this is a qualitative, exploratory study with 719 Nursing
professionals from five geographic regions of Brazil. Data were collected between April and June 2020,
via a virtual questionnaire consisting of sociodemographic data and an open question. Iramuteq
software was used to process the data. Thematic content analysis and the hope model were adopted as
an interpretive theoretical basis. Results: the meanings of hope are expressed in ambivalent feelings,
which are overcome through spirituality and religiosity, which constitute strategies that promote
hope. Interpersonal relationships and solidarity actions strengthen hope. Nursing professionals
support their hopes in science, faith, and the potential of the health team. Conclusion: such
meanings promote learning and reflections on the meaning of life, helping Nursing professionals to
overcome the adverse daily life and take ownership of strategies that promote hope and resilience.
