1 Geriatric Medicine Rotation Contact Person: Dr. Lotika Pandit General Information Geriatric medicine is an integral part of the Internal Medicine Residency Program. Our faculty includes four fellowship-trained geriatricians and four faculty with a current Certificate of Added Qualifications in Geriatric Medicine. We also have two faculty with certification in Palliative care. In addition to working with well-trained faculty in geriatrics, the house staff receives significant exposure to elderly patients and the disease processes associated with a geriatric medicine practice as they provide ambulatory care, hospitalization and consultation for elderly patients on multiple rotations. The house staff are required to complete a one month geriatric medicine block rotation during the PGY-2 or PGY-3 year with daily exposure to medically frail, complex geriatric patients in a variety of inpatient and outpatient settings which includes the Alexian Brothers Community Services Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE), Hospice of Chattanooga, nursing home, private office and home visits. Objectives The objectives of the Geriatric Medicine rotation is to familiarize the resident with the unique challenges of day-to-day medical care of the frail, complex elderly patient and to help the housestaff develop a sense of applying the holistic or bio-psycho-social-spiritual concept of patient care in an interdisciplinary team model. Specific goals that will be addressed during the rotation are: Distinguish normal, usual and pathologic aging processes and learn how age affects disease. Develop the ability to obtain an accurate history from elderly patients that requires an appropriate attitude and interpersonal skills. Understand the current systems available for care of dependent elderly, including the eligibility and funding of different levels of care. Understanding the role of functional assessment and use of standardized tools. Use appropriate diagnostic tests and recognize proper interpretations. Recognize and analyze positive or negative attitudes and biases regarding the elderly and the problems this creates in the doctor-patient relationship. Distinguish subtle variations in geriatric medicine as it pertains to: o Altered disease presentations o Multiple diseases o Polypharmacy o Economic factors o Sociologic and humanistic factors
2 Value to the General Internist The majority of patients in the general internist s practice will be older patients and this rotation will establish a set of skills and attitudes necessary to maximize the appropriateness of geriatric care. Due to the complexity of these patients, it is sometimes necessary to solicit the assistance of community-based resources. This rotation will teach the internist what services are available in most communities nationwide and how to appropriately utilize them. This rotation will teach the philosophy of an interdisciplinary team to an internist in an effort to improve the communication between the internist and the paraprofessionals in the community who will also be involved in the care of this frail population. As Medicare and Medicaid become more complex and payment sources restructured, this rotation will teach the basics of reimbursement by Medicare and Medicaid and how this might apply to community-based elderly in various levels of care. Principal Teaching Methods. This course will be taught as a hands on experience in many settings including: The Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) Nursing Homes Home Visits Hospice Private Practice UMA (residents continuity clinic) House staff will be required to see frail patients in each of these settings independently with immediate feedback by an attending physician. They will also be required to attend interdisciplinary team meetings at the PACE and hospice sites. Other meetings may include medical staff meetings, medical-nursing staff meetings, ethics committee meetings, family meeting and others. While at the PACE site, the housestaff will spend designated time in the Physical and Occupational therapy departments to learn principals of rehabilitation of the frail elderly and environmental (e.g. home) safety. The Housestaff will be provided with a series of questions related to each of the so-called geriatric syndromes to assess competency in these areas prior to and at the end of the rotation. Reading assignments will be given and video taped series of geriatric review material will be provided to expand on certain topics, as appropriate. Educational Content Residents will work with attending physicians in geriatric medicine and may also have on an optional basis opportunities to observe podiatry, ophthalmology, psychiatry and dentistry as part of a coordinated care delivery system at PACE. Topics in the resident lecture sessions will be discussed with designated faculty.
3 Components of the Physical Examination Stressed Geriatrics is a functionality based specialty; therefore focus will be given to assessing the functional status of each patient. Additionally, the Yale One Question, Caregiver Strain Questionnaire, Geriatric Depression Scale, Folstein Mini-mental State Examination and the Clock Drawing Test, Katz ADLs will be taught and the interpretation of each of these will be stressed. Opportunities to observe a full neuropsychological test battery will be available on a optional basis. During the time with physical and occupational therapy, the housestaff will improve assessment skills of falls, gait, strength, coordination and function and learn screening techniques to be used in private practice. Procedures Procedures will primarily focus on cognitive testing of elderly. Occasionally, the residents may have the opportunity to perform cryoablation, small shave or excisional skin biopsies and joint and trigger point injections. Ethical issues in the care of Geriatric Patient 1. Advance Directives: Living wills, Durable Power of Attorney for Healthcare, Physician s order for scope of treatment (POST) form Evaluation methods 1. Patient presentation to the attending 2.
