Abstract:

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have emerged as crucial frameworks for improving global health outcomes and transforming healthcare delivery. This comprehensive review aimed to evaluate the impact of SDGs on healthcare and nursing care delivery. A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed, MEDLINE, and CINAHL databases, focusing on studies published between 2015 and 2023. The included studies were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify common themes and patterns. The findings suggest a significant positive correlation between the implementation of the SDGs and improvements in healthcare quality, accessibility, and patient satisfaction. Notably, the impact of the SDGs on nursing care delivery was found to be more pronounced in developing countries. This review highlights the importance of integrating the SDGs into healthcare policies and nursing practices to achieve better global health outcomes. However, the interpretation of the results should consider potential biases and variability in SDG implementation across different regions. This study also emphasizes the need for further longitudinal research to assess the long-term impact of SDGs on healthcare systems. The findings of this review can inform policymaking and guide the development of strategies to enhance nursing care practices in alignment with SDG targets, ultimately contributing to universal health coverage and improved patient outcomes.
