Objective: To report the experience of a health action of the Commission for Permanent Education in Nursing at the Hospital Geral de Fortaleza during the Covid-19 pandemic. Methods: Experience report of the actions developed by the Permanent Nursing Education Commission to train the nursing team to the suspected or confirmed patient with Covid-19 and self-protection measures, from March 2020 to March 2021. 406 professionals were trained in 81 workshops. Results: The professionals demonstrated insecurity, concern and anxiety in patient care with Covid-19, fear of own or family illness. We found inexperienced and recently graduated professionals, scarcity and inadequate use of PPE. It is a reflection to think about strategies that help in the work process of these professionals, mainly in adopting measures to support mental health. Final considerations: After the workshops, the professionals felt safer and encouraged to provide safer assistance and share their learnings with others.
