The Order launches mental health program for nurses with consultations and SOS line

Correio da Manhã8 September 2026 at 19:14

The Order of Nurses has launched a mental health program specifically dedicated to nurses, which includes consultations and a SOS hotline. This initiative comes in response to the growing concern about the psychological well-being of these healthcare professionals. The program aims to offer specialized support to nurses who face emotional and psychological difficulties related to their work. A study conducted in 2024 revealed that 74.3% of surveyed nurses rated their mental health negatively, demonstrating the gravity of the situation and the urgent need for intervention. This data alarmed the Order of Nurses, which decided to create this support program to combat burnout and other mental health issues affecting the profession.
