  • Title: Residency curriculum issues in geriatrics training.
    Author: Bobula JA.
    Journal: Fam Med; 1992 Feb; 24(2):117-22. PubMed ID: 1537442.
    Abstract:
    Development of a satisfactory geriatrics curriculum in a family practice residency requires realistic planning in light of the residency's resources and integration of geriatrics training activities into a comprehensive system of monitoring residents' educational needs and accomplishments. This paper, drawing on principles of curriculum design and quality improvement, proposes that: 1) goals and objectives define the scope of training; 2) instructional flexibility is essential; 3) evaluation drives the system; 4) residents deserve individualized educational care; and 5) faculty deserve educational skill development.
