Caring for Older Americans: The Future of Geriatric Medicine
British Geriatrics Society
The Medical Undergraduate Curriculum in Geriatric Medicine
Compendium document 5.1 (revised July 2007)
3.8 Communicate clearly and effectively with older patients, their relatives and
colleagues from a variety of health and social care professions. These skills
include:
•The ability to relate to patients, their families and carers. Be able to discuss with
them their medical problems, plans for discharge and support, providing sufficient
information in a way that is easy to understand.
•The ability to communicate with older people regardless of their background or
disability.
•The ability to relate to older people with communication difficulties and to know
how communication can be facilitated in these situations.
•The ability to work as a member of a team with colleagues, including
General Practitioners, professions allied to medicine and representatives
from social services. Recognise the importance of communicating effectively
(verbal and written) with other members of the team to optimize patient
care and treatment. Recognize the need to keep good medical records,
documenting changes in progress and recording conversations with families
and carers.
•The ability to communicate with patients and carers in potentially difficult situations
such as breaking bad news or bereavement.

Healthcare Professional Training: A Comparison of
Geriatric Competencies: JAGS 2008; 56:1724
“The vast majority of healthcare professionals, including those in geriatric
specialties, learn in isolation from other professions, even though their
clinical practice may place them side by side at the same site of care. In
geriatrics, most healthcare professionals come to clinical rotations having
had virtually no interdisciplinary training.”
“Medical residents are less likely than nurse practitioners or social workers
to perceive that the team offers positive benefits and more likely than
nurse practitioners and social workers to feel that the purpose of the
interdisciplinary team is to assist the physician in achieving treatment
goals.”
“Physicians are socialized to a strict hierarchical model and have little
exposure to collaboration with other professionals.”
“Efforts to coordinate academic programs and establish interdisciplinary
experiences for students face barriers such as the perception of faculty
that interdisciplinary courses and activities carry less weight than other
activities in promotion and tenure decisions.”
Healthcare Professional Training: A Comparison of
Geriatric Competencies: JAGS 2008; 56:1724
“Geriatrics models in acute and long-term care shows that, when educated
together in geriatric teams, advanced practice nurses, medical residents,
and social workers improve in attitude toward teams and team skills.”
“Practitioners from each discipline should understand the scope of practice
and competencies of the other disciplines with whom they work.”
“Academic programs might consider developing discipline-specific
recognition for interdisciplinary activities that reflect team building, conflict
resolution, outcome measurement, and case management that reflect a
mindset that focuses on team building rather than individual skills.”
“There is a need to be inclusive when choosing healthcare disciplines to
involve in coordinated academic geriatric initiatives. Geriatric
interdisciplinary training and practice typically include medicine, nursing,
and social workers and sometimes pharmacy, nutrition, and the
rehabilitative therapies. Dentistry, however, is undervalued.”
