Donald W. Reynolds FD~AGE at Johns Hopkins
The FD~AGE Program at the Johns Hopkins University is directed by the Division of Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology. The Division traces its origin to the clinical programs for chronic care developed at the Baltimore City Hospitals in the 1950's by Mason F. Lord, M.D., a legendary member of the Johns Hopkins faculty who pioneered a multidisciplinary approach to the care of the older patients. These programs evolved to become what is now the Division of Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology. Since its inception in 1983, the Johns Hopkins University Division of Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology has continued to develop a full continuum of geriatrics clinical services and is now one of the largest geriatrics training programs in the United States.
FD~AGE Programs at Johns Hopkins:
- On-Site Consultations
- Mini-Fellowship Program: Specific mini-fellowships to expand geriatrics teaching skills of non-geriatricians. Content areas include:
- Targeted geriatrics principles for medical and surgical subspecialty practices with large volumes of geriatric patients, including Emergency Medicine, General Surgery, Orthopedic Surgery, and Internal Medicine.
- Teaching skills for varied practice settings
- Techniques for identifying teaching opportunities
- Advanced Fellowships for Clinician Educators: Opportunity for a one-year intensive fellowship in teaching methods and educational scholarship following clinical fellowship.
- Scholarships to Johns Hopkins Current Topics in Geriatrics Course: Scholarships for selected non-geriatrician clinician-educators to attend Current Topics in Geriatrics, co-sponsored by Johns Hopkins University Division of Geriatric Medicine and the American Geriatrics Society.
