This study aims to analyze the impacts of COVID-19 on cancer patient care in the head and neck surgery outpatient clinic, through the procedures performed in the years 2019, 2020 and 2021. Method: Qualitative, descriptive study on the procedures performed by the nursing team in a head and neck surgery outpatient clinic. Data were collected from January 2019 to December 2021 and computed in an Excel spreadsheet. Results: They showed the negative disparity in the number of patient visits in the head and neck surgery outpatient clinic, in 2019 compared to 2020, in which there was a 33% drop. Comparing the results of the year 2019 with 2021, a drop of 25% was noticed. However, when comparing the year 2020 to 2021, there was an increase of 12%. In the number of procedures performed in 2020 there was a 31% drop compared to 2019 and, compared to 2021, there was a 26% drop, but in the year 2020 to 2021 there was an increase of 13%. Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic had a strong impact on the care provided to patients at the head and neck surgery outpatient clinic, leading to a reduction in care and provision of nursing care to this clientele, but at the beginning of the pandemic scenario, institutions had to redesign care protocols to face the current situation in the country and in the world, thus promoting safer and more efficient care.
