Cover Story: Alzheimer’s disease involves a prolonged caregiving experience, yet care coordination often excludes palliative care. This integrative review aimed to identify care coordination interventions incorporating palliative care for community-dwelling dementia patients and their caregivers. The study was guided by the Whittemore and Knafl framework, the analysis used the SELFIE framework, and the study quality was assessed with the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. Nine interventions were identified across 18 publications, but only one explicitly mentioned palliative care. Most included elements like advance care planning and symptom management. Further research is needed on diverse, representative samples to reduce care coordination burdens. View this paper
