Abstract
The views of trainees in geriatric medicine on preferred career styles were studied by questionnaire. As expected, the majority of respondents did not intend a career in geriatric medicine upon graduation. Whilst a majority would prefer a post wholly dedicated to the care of elderly patients, half the sample would prefer their service to be integrated with general medical services. The majority are optimistic for the future of geriatric medicine in the United Kingdom.Keywords
