The aim of this study is to systematic literature review on the specialization of Forensic Nursing and its significance in the healthcare system, as well as to identify the historical development of key attributes in Forensic Nurses. In this study employs review methodologies to systematically evaluate nine scholarly papers published in the Web of Science, PubMed, and Scopus databases between the years 2013 and 2023. The review encompasses a total of 280 papers from three prominent databases in the field of "Forensic Nursing" over a span of 10 years. Once the articles were selected, a PRISMA form was used to extract the necessary information. The data was then analyzed using a content analysis approach. Eventually, a total of nine articles were included in the perfect search stage. The findings of this research showed a valuable contribution to the existing body of knowledge in the field of Forensic Nursing, thereby promoting its wider acceptance. Additionally, these findings can assist human resources planners, practitioners, policymakers, and government managers in implementing Forensic Nursing more effectively in various healthcare settings, including hospitals and other clinical environments in the future.
