Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which has swept the world since December 2019, has caused suffering and death to millions of people worldwide over the past 2 years and has changed our lives. In 2021, the mandatory use of indoor and outdoor masks was lifted in the United States and Europe, and in 2022, the mandatory use of outdoor masks was wholly lifted in Korea as part of the transition to a post-COVID-19 environment. Although the World Health Organization has not officially declared the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, countries worldwide are now preparing for the future by proposing new healthcare policies in the post-COVID-19 era. Pediatric nurses are at the forefront of the COVID-19 pandemic, performing physical and mental patient care, maintenance of public health systems, education, and research to improve the health of children and their families. Pediatric nursing services have always sought a new paradigm in line with social changes, and the following pediatric nursing strategies are needed to prepare for the post-COVID-19 era.
