Abstract
The aim was to analyze the impacts of remote work on employees' mental health considering Florence Nightingale's environmentalist theory. The methodology adopted was a study of critical reflection, using Nightingale's principles as a theoretical basis. A comprehensive literature review was carried out using databases such as LILACS, MedLine, Google Scholar, and SciELO, with thematic analysis of the studies selected according to Bardin's approach. The results revealed three thematic categories: "Isolation and loneliness in the remote work environment", "Psychological and emotional impacts of remote work" and "Strategies for promoting mental health in remote work". Discussions highlighted the need for organizational policies that promote in-person social interactions and emotional support to mitigate the adverse effects of social isolation. The need for an integrative approach that values both technology and human sensitivity is emphasized to create a healthier and more sustainable virtual work environment, aligned with the principles of environmental theory.
