The aim of this paper is to report workforce information about graduates from accredited training programs in addiction psychiatry.
As of June 30, 2002 there were 44 ACGME-accredited addiction psychiatry programs. The author asked the directors of these programs to complete a workforce survey about their graduates.
Seventy-three percent of program directors responded, providing information about 186 addiction psychiatrists. Forty-one percent of the graduates were employed in academic settings. Sixty-four percent of graduates employed in clinical settings dealt primarily with substance abuse patients. A majority of respondents described graduates as satisfied with compensation packages.
Addiction psychiatry offers opportunities in a variety of settings that allow new graduates to utilize their subspecialty training.
本文旨在报告成瘾精神病学认可培训项目毕业生的劳动力信息。
截至2002年6月30日,有44个经美国毕业后医学教育认证委员会(ACGME)认可的成瘾精神病学项目。作者要求这些项目的主任完成一项关于其毕业生的劳动力调查。
73%的项目主任做出了回应,提供了186名成瘾精神病医生的信息。41%的毕业生受雇于学术机构。在临床机构工作的毕业生中,64%主要诊治药物滥用患者。大多数受访者称毕业生对薪酬待遇感到满意。
成瘾精神病学在多种环境中提供了机会,使新毕业生能够利用他们的亚专业培训。
