Key components included care mediation, multidisciplinary care, primary care integration, and digital technology.

Meso-level integration was most common (23 studies), followed by micro-level (12) and macro-level (5).

Conclusions:

Supportive organizational structure, multidisciplinary collaboration, and leadership are crucial for integrated dementia care.
Greater emphasis on macro-level integration alongside meso- and micro-levels is recommended for comprehensive networks.
