Background and Aim: Nurses gained more attention than other healthcare professional during the Covid-19 pandemic, when they were at the front line of fight against the pandemic. Since then, numerous concerns and issues have been raised in relation to nursing practice, which have the optential to affect the nursing students' ideas, attitudes and experience with nursing profession. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the nursing image perceived by nursing students following COVID-19 pandemic.
Materials and methods: This descriptive-qualitative study was conducted at Alborz University of Medical Sciences. Participants in this study included nursing students enrolled in their first, second, third, fourth, sixth, and eighth semesters, who had been selected by purposeful sampling technique. Data was collected using the virtual focused group method in the e-learning system forum (Navid). MAXQDA-10 software was used to analyzed the data with conventional content analysis approach.
Results: A total of 86 students participated in the virtual focus group interviews. Data were analyzed by content analysis approach, which resulted in the formation of 6 subcategories and 2 main categories. The main categories included perceived self-concept (with subcategories of feeling valuable, doubt and unconditional lover), and perceived public image (with subcategories of nurse as hero, nursing as a profession, and transient promotion).
Conclusion: The Covid-19 pandemic has promoted the image of nursing for nursing students as well as general public. However, there is concern about the temporary promotion of professional image of nursing. It is necessary for the nursing officials and experts to consider such conditions as an opportunity to introduce nursing profession academically, with the aim of creating motivation and positive attitude toward nursing  in students, and stabilishing a positive image of nursing in the society.
