摘要 为了评估接受过正规培训的老年科医生是否仍留在老年病学领域，并确定他们的工作满意度和感知的生活质量，我们对过去 25 年在一项认可的老年病学项目中接受过培训的 107 名研究员进行了调查。在同意参与的 88 名医生中，75% 的人至少将一半的工作时间用于老年人护理。在学术层面，89.5% 的人已经或计划寻求老年医学重新认证。百分之九十五的老年科医生认为正式的老年医学研究金对他们的医疗生涯和满意度指数有积极的影响。 64% 的人年收入在 100 至 20 万美元之间，25.6% 的人年收入超过 20 万美元。百分之八十七的人会建议进行老年研究金培训。我们需要进一步探索如何向潜在的老年研究员提供招聘流程和工作机会。
Abstract To evaluate whether formally trained geriatricians remain in the field of Geriatrics, and to determine their job satisfaction and perceived quality of life, we surveyed the 107 fellows trained over the last 25 years in one accredited geriatric program. Of the 88 physicians who consented to participate, 75% devoted at least half of their practice to the care of the elderly. On an academic level, 89.5% had, or planned to pursue, recertification in geriatric medicine. Ninety-five percent of these geriatricians felt that the impact of a formal geriatric fellowship was positive on their medical career and satisfaction index. Sixty-four percent had yearly incomes between $100 and $200k, and 25.6% had income greater than $200k. Eighty-seven percent would recommend pursuing geriatric fellowship training. We need to further explore how recruitment process and job opportunities are presented to potential geriatric fellows.
