Introduction As Australia's aging population increases and diversifies, there will be a growing need to address the burden of dementia among culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities. Due to a lack of CALD‐appropriate services and bilingual health professionals, older people from CALD backgrounds often receive a delayed diagnosis of dementia. The use of telemedicine (TM) to deliver video‐interpreting services may overcome the barriers of interpreter availability when diagnosing and assessing dementia in older people from CALD backgrounds. Methods This paper aims to present a review of the literature on the use of TM to deliver video‐interpreting during dementia assessments. Factors affecting the reliability and agreement, feasibility, and satisfaction and acceptability when using TM or video‐interpreting have been described. Results The review found evidence that dementia assessments conducted via TM are as reliable as face‐to‐face (FTF) assessments and that participants are satisfied and find TM acceptable. There was less evidence about the feasibility of TM from the health care perspective, particularly regarding the acceptability and potential financial cost‐savings. Only five studies investigated the use of video‐interpreting during clinical assessments with CALD patients. Although video‐interpreting was found to be satisfactory among CALD patients and clinicians, a common finding was the preference for FTF interpreting. Discussion More research is needed to examine the financial feasibility and the health care perspective on the implementation and adoption of TM for dementia assessments. The use of TM to deliver video‐interpreting for dementia assessments has never been investigated and represents a significant gap in the literature.
