After conducting a systematic search on Scopus Elsevier, this paper retrieved 512 publications. Then, after a meticulous screening process and only five publications were suitable for analysis. Thematic analysis categorized into music and dance-based interventions for discussion. Developing and sustaining music and dance-based care programs for older people requires financial resources, such as investment and funding coverage. Dance-based interventions offer potential benefits for older adults; such as improving participation and motivation for rehabilitation in older adults, while music-based intervention helps ease cognitive and neuropsychiatric symptoms in dementia patients.
