Abstract :COVID-19, which first appeared in China in December 2019, rapidly spread all over the world and caused a pandemic. Although it is difficult to cope with this epidemic in every aspect, the biggest burden is on healthcare personnel and especially nurses. This study focuses on the physical and psychological difficulties experienced by a nurse who was one of the first nurses to catch COVID-19 while serving her patients in Turkey and who has been working as a nurse for 4 months, from diagnosis to the end of treatment process. Due to the fact that a nurse caught Covid-19 is a healthcare worker, it is thought that the physical and psychological problems experienced are greater.
