This review identified clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) and consensus statements (CSs) that include recommendations on long-term care for community-dwelling older adults. Additionally, it assessed their quality using the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE II) tool to determine high-quality guidelines and synthesis recommendations from high-quality guidelines and evaluate the quality of these guidelines using the AGREE-Recommendation Excellence (AGREE-REX) tool. A systematic search was performed (November 2023) in MEDLINE, PubMed, Guidelines International Network (GIN), National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), New Zealand Guidelines Group (NZGG), Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario (RNAO), National Guideline Clearinghouse (NGC), and Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN). Two reviewers independently selected and assessed the articles using AGREE II. A meeting was held to appraise the quality of the guidelines (AGREE II mean score >70 %) using AGREE-REX. The analysis included 14 CPGs and 2 CSs. Of these, 7 CPGs reached the standard of >70 %, the 'Scope and purpose' domain obtained the highest score with 85.43 (± 17.87), and the 'Applicability' domain scored lowest with 46.93 (± 26.74). Regarding the score of AGREE-REX, the seven CPGs were considered as 'moderate', with the 'Clinical Applicability' domain having the highest score of 61.29 % (±10.80) and the 'Values and Preferences' domain having the lowest score of 38.14 % (±9.26). Four themes were synthesised from the seven high-quality CPGs: planning and delivering person-centred home care, cognitive impairment, and screening for impaired vision and falls. The quality of CPGs and CSs on long-term care for community-dwelling older adults has room for improvement, and higher-quality guidelines are required to meet the long-term care needs of community-dwelling older adults.
