New Frontiers in Geriatric Education: Integrated hospital and community rotation
Abstract:
The author describes a 1-month rotation in geriatric medicine for family practice residents. Residents work at a geriatric center with day patients, residents in a home for the aged, and acute and chronic-care hospital patients, under the supervision of geriatricians, family physicians, and specialists. They then work in the office of a family physician or in an outpatient miniclinic within a senior citizen housing complex. All residents reported increased comfort with elderly patients, and many have chosen to include geriatrics in their practices.
