Sumario:AIM: Healthcare staff, especially nurses, who are in the frontline of caring of patients with COVID‐19 have valuable experiences about taking care of these patients. Therefore, the aim of this study was exploring nurses' perception of taking care of patients with COVID‐19. DESIGN: This qualitative study was performed using the conventional content analysis method. METHODS: 13 nurses who were taking care of patients with COVID‐19 were selected using purposeful sampling in the Lorestan University of Medical Sciences. The data were collected through telephone interviews and analysed based on the Lundman and Graneheim's approach. RESULTS: Qualitative analysis of the data revealed 3 sub‐categories, 8 categories and 3 main categories including care erosion, nursing professional growth and necessities. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: Improve the work situation of the nurses during care of COVID‐19 patients, which can directly or indirectly improve the quality of care of these patients.
