  "abstract": "Introduction With the increasing frequency and intensity of disasters globally—and their profound effects on the mental well-being of healthcare professionals, particularly nurses—the psychological distress experienced by nurses following natural disasters has become a pressing issue. This study aims to explore prevalent patterns and effective interventions for supporting nurses’ psychological recovery after disaster exposure, ultimately aiming to propose an optimal recovery model.Methods and analysis This systematic review will include qualitative, quantitative and mixed-methods studies, as well as relevant systematic reviews, published in English between 2010 and 2025. A comprehensive search will be conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus and Google Scholar. Study selection, data extraction and quality assessment will be performed independently by multiple reviewers, with methodological quality and risk of bias evaluated using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. Due to anticipated heterogeneity, findings will be synthesised using thematic analysis.Ethics and dissemination This study protocol raises no ethical issues. The results will be shared through publication in peer-reviewed journals and presentations at appropriate academic conferences.PROSPERO registration number CRD420251014914.",
