First-year medical students at UCLA are introduced to the special health problems of the elderly by a process in which they interview symptomatic volunteers at both extended care and ambulatory care facilities. In. addition, they interview healthy elderly volunteers to gain information on gerontology and lifespan development, with supplementation from selected readings, films, lectures and panels. This curricular model seems effective in reducing prejudice about the aged and in training future physicians to render humane competent care in the field of geriatrics.
加州大学洛杉矶分校的一年级医学生通过在长期护理和门诊护理机构采访有症状的志愿者的过程，了解老年人的特殊健康问题。此外，他们采访健康的老年志愿者，以获取有关老年医学和寿命发展的信息，并辅以精选的读物、电影、讲座和小组讨论。这种课程模式似乎在减少对老年人的偏见以及培训未来的医生在老年医学领域提供人道且专业的护理方面很有效。
