To map the literature about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on nurses’ mental health; to identify the coping strategies used by nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic. A scoping review was used as recommended by the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) and PRISMA-SCRA extension. The search was conducted at the databases LILACS; CINAHL; Schiele; PubMed Central; Medline; Google Scholar, between March and April 2021. The increased workload, the shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE) and human resources, as well as the fear of getting infected and infecting family members, the stigma associated with COVID-19 workers; dealing with large-scale death and negative feelings. The most used strategies in mental health promotion were Telemedicine/telehealth, planned empathic listening, empathic understanding, and hotline. Adaptive mental health strategies must be reinforced to minimize the adverse effects of the pandemic.
