Objective: To identify the nursing care associated with the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (R) program in the field of colorectal surgery. Methods: According to the recommendations of the Joanna Briggs Institute, a Scoping Review of publications from 2009 to 2019 was carried out based on the research question: "What is the nursing care for patients undergoing colorectal surgery in the scope of the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (R) program?". The research took place between 12/02/2019 and 12/12/2019 through the boolean research in the following electronic databases: CINAHL Complete, MEDLINE Complete, Nursing & Allied Health Collection: Comprehensive, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Methodology Register, Library, Information Science & Technology Abstracts, MedicLatina, and in the b-ON repository with the MeSH descriptors "nursing", "colorectal' and the key-word "enhanced". Results: We selected 13 articles that showed adaptation and complementarity with the nursing care ensured by the nurse coordinator of the program and stomatherapist nursing. In the preoperative period, instruction and person optimization stand out as an intervention, in the intraoperative period, a minimally invasive approach with multimodal pain management, and in the postoperative, a precocious return to feeding, rehabilitation, and telephone follow-up at the time of the hospital discharge. Conclusion: The nurses perform a crucial role to the adoption and support of the suggested clinical practices of the program verifying a positive impact in patients submitted to colorectal surgery.
