Nurses are the pillar of healthcare, and their resilience drives community recovery, compassion, and caring.

The study utilized Husserlian phenomenology as a research design. Purposive sampling was used in the selection of participants. The Institutional Ethics Review Committee approved the study before data gathering to ensure ethical consideration was followed. Semi-structured interview both face to face and via zoom meetings were employed to collect the data. Thematic Analysis was used in analyzing the data gathered. Four themes emerged in this study: their challenges, their coping, their desires, and their realizations.
