Abstract

Objective: to analyze the available evidence and propose mental health care of older adults in the post-pandemic transition.
Development: the global crisis currently experienced due to the COVID-19 pandemic has caused the isolation of older adults. Due to distancing, the presence of psychological symptoms that affect the mental health of aged individuals has been enhanced, but the prevalence of these symptoms and their sequelae in the transition to the new normality must be considered.
Final considerations: the Tidal Model demands Nursing care in mental health, where the role of the nurse will be to promote strategies that facilitate decision-making in favor of mental health by the older adults themselves in their adaptive process.
