A literature survey showed that students in different medical professions, young nurses and young doctors, have difficulty in dealing with elderly patients. In medical teaching insufficient attention is paid to this age group which is one of the most important target groups in medical care. Possible educational goals and desirable changes in medical education are described. A certain selection of residents before accepting them for the training in those specialisms, where the care of the aged is extensive (family medicine, medicine in long stay institutions, internal medicine) seems necessary for the improvement of geriatric health care.
一项文献调查显示，不同医学专业的学生、年轻护士和年轻医生在与老年患者打交道时存在困难。在医学教学中，对这一年龄段群体的关注不足，而该群体是医疗护理中最重要的目标群体之一。文中描述了医学教育可能的教育目标和理想变革。为改善老年保健状况，在接受那些老年护理工作广泛的专业（家庭医学、长期住院机构医学、内科）培训之前，对住院医生进行一定筛选似乎很有必要。
