ABSTRACT
The rapid cadence of change and the fear of acquiring and spreading COVID-19 - coupled with moral distress exacerbated by fulfilling one's duty to care under extremely challenging conditions - continue to impact nurses' coping ability, resilience and psychological safety globally (McDougall et al. 2020). This paper provides an overview of how an academic health sciences centre (AHSC) has responded to the evolving waves of the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, we share our context and the strategies we used to build and enhance nurse resilience and psychological safety at the organizational, clinical team and individual levels. This is followed by a description of our nurses' achievements amid the pandemic.
