The COVID-19 epidemic continues to spread, and frontline health professionals have unfortunately contracted this virus because of exposure while providing clinical care. Based on the painful experience of the previous SARS epidemic in Taiwan, nurses have adopted a standard of care for infection protection that incorporates early prevention and detection. However, international public health experts remain unable to control the infectivity and variability of the COVID19 virus, which increases the mental stress on frontline nurses when performing care. In this paper, which uses a medical center in the north of Taiwan as an example, JBI clinical guidelines, infection control experience, and nurses\' awareness, perceived support, and self-efficacy are applied to suggest ways to improve epidemic prevention and mental construction, enhance nurses\' psychological empowerment and refection, promote role identity in nursing and self-value, establish health team awareness, strengthen infection protection concepts, and integrate infection control concepts into the nursing models to develop effective standard operating procedures for epidemic prevention management and effectively prevent the spread of the virus and maintain public health.
