Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Geriatric Medicine
  • Family Medicine Training

Background:

  • New Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) guidelines mandate increased training for caring for older adults in family medicine residencies.
  • The aging population and unmet needs in geriatric care necessitate curriculum updates.
  • The Trident/Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) Family Medicine Residency Program revised its geriatrics curriculum in response to these guidelines.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To adapt the geriatrics curriculum at the Trident/MUSC Family Medicine Residency Program to meet new ACGME requirements.
  • To address the growing needs of an aging patient population within family medicine.
  • To enhance resident training in geriatric care.

Main Methods:

  • Established a partnership with a continuing care retirement community (CCRC).
  • Implemented changes including increased CCRC time, improved longitudinal patient continuity, an interprofessional didactic curriculum, more geriatric electives, and online pharmacotherapy quizzes.
  • Assessed curriculum effectiveness using a validated pre/postresident survey.

Main Results:

  • Residents reported increased comfort levels in managing geriatric patients.
  • A greater number of residents expressed interest in specializing in geriatrics.
  • Participation in the geriatrics track within the residency program increased.

Conclusions:

  • Family medicine residency programs must create comprehensive geriatrics curricula due to evolving ACGME requirements and an increasing elderly population.
  • The Trident/MUSC Family Medicine Residency Program's revised curriculum serves as a model for other institutions aiming to improve geriatric training.
  • The program successfully enhanced resident preparedness for geriatric care.
