Background: The quality of nursing care is a critical aspect of healthcare, directly impacting patient outcomes and safety. In Saudi Arabia, nursing team management plays a significant role in determining the effectiveness of care delivery. However, various challenges, such as leadership styles, team collaboration, and work environment conditions, affect the overall quality of nursing care in the Kingdom. This systematic review aims to explore how nursing team management influences care quality within Saudi healthcare settings, in alignment with Vision 2030 reforms.

A total of 150 articles were identified, and after screening and full-text review, 10 studies were selected for inclusion. The data extraction process focused on leadership styles, teamwork, work environment, professional development, and governance related to nursing care quality.
Results: The findings reveal that transformational leadership, effective team collaboration, a supportive work environment, and continuous professional development significantly contribute to improved patient outcomes and nursing care quality. Studies indicate that organizational support and involvement in decision-making also play a crucial role in enhancing nurse performance and job satisfaction.
