Abstract
The first step recommended for people who present symptoms of COVID-19 is to seek initial care in basic health units in the state or municipal public network, or even in the private network. The patient must inform, at the first visit, about the suspicion of the disease. In this context, the aim was to reflect on the role of screening services in the management and control of SARS-CoV-2 infection, based on Florence Nightingale's Environmental Theory. The professional nurse must seek better results and improvements in the quality of life of patients before their care, appropriate for planning to minimize the impacts that have already occurred and in the prevention of new cases, as well as the spread. Guide epidemiological information as important measures, providing updated evidence to responsible agencies. Furthermore, Florence left us a legacy of the influence of the environment on the individual's life. Thus, it is expected that this study awakens in nurses who are the coordinators of care, sectors and health units, to a different look at the environment in which these suspected/confirmed patients are, as this will directly influence, whether in adherence to treatment, guidance and, establishing trust in an empathic relationship, there is no doubt that it is a strategy to overcome this obstacle that the pandemic has brought us.
