Outpatient Continuity Clinic: The fellow will spend 1 to 2 half day sessions at the Stony Brook Primary Care
Center in Tech Park and/or Northport VA outpatient geriatric clinic.
Nursing Home: The fellow will be assigned to be the Primary Care Physician for a panel of patients
at the LISVH or Northport VA. They will spend 1-2 half days a week at the assigned institution.
Home Care Visits: The fellows will make Home Care visits throughout the year visiting a patient
in a range of settings from the individual home to an assisted living facility.
The first year of fellowship
requirements and rotations satisfy ACGME guidelines. The option of a second year may be used to further
expand areas of interest including research in geriatrics, teaching projects or curriculum design, palliative
care or to further the Nursing Home longitudinal experience. The format is flexible, allowing for our fellows
to pursue academic, teaching and personal career growth. The second year must be approved by the Department of
Medicine and Graduate Medical School.
