Abstract
Although there is a real need in variety of settings for psychiatrists trained in working with older people, a large proportion of psychiatric residency programs do not offer the opportunity for clinical experience with this age group. The author stresses the need to include this subject in the curriculum of residency training programs. He describes the features of one program that offers comprehensive training in this area.Abstract Teaser
