Our main finding is that there is a rich variety of practices and that evaluation criteria are very diverse, thus not standardised. We suggest using a mixed‐method approach to capture the subjective experience of patients and caregivers. These findings also highlight the significance of institutional cooperative work and call for a redefinition of team construction.Reporting MethodThe authors adhered to PRISMA guidelines.Patient or Public ContributionNo patient or public contribution.
