The data collection was carried out between June 7th and 10th, 2020 and the thematic analysis was used for data treatment. Results: a total of 39 news items were analyzed, with aspects emerging about the appeals of the Ordem dos Enfermeiros (OE) and the Union Associations regarding the lack and need to hire nursing professionals and the lack of personal protective equipment for patient care. Nurses’ concerns about the pandemic situation experienced and support strategies for nursing professionals were also evidenced. Conclusion: the media essentially published news on the concerns felt in the context of the practice regarding the lack of human and material resources to face the pandemic scenario.
