Geriatric medicine in Canada is now being viewed not merely as an academic specialty but, rather, more broadly as a service specialty providing consulting support to other physicians. Any redesigning of training programs will have to be done with this fact in mind. We drew up a list of competencies required for consultant practice in the field and presented them to other practitioners of geriatric medicine and members of the Canadian Society of Geriatric Medicine for feedback. We believe that the resulting list of competencies can be used as a starting point for redesigning training programs in geriatric medicine.
在加拿大，老年医学如今不仅被视为一门学术专业，更广泛地被看作是一门为其他医生提供咨询支持的服务专业。培训项目的任何重新设计都必须考虑到这一事实。我们列出了该领域顾问实践所需的能力清单，并将其提交给其他老年医学从业者和加拿大老年医学会成员以获取反馈。我们相信，由此得出的能力清单可作为重新设计老年医学培训项目的起点。
