Welcome from Fellowship Director

As the population of older adults continues to increase, 需要精神病治疗的老年人数量也在稳步增加. 大约14-20%的65岁以上成年人有严重的精神健康和/或物质使用障碍. In addition, 65岁以后,认知障碍和痴呆的发病率显著增加,并常伴有神经精神症状. As a result, 对老年精神病学领域的专家和领导者的需求从未如此之大. 

The Johns Hopkins Geriatric Psychiatry Fellowship is an ACGME-accredited, one-year, 临床研究金,为有精神健康症状的老年人提供精神评估和治疗方面的高级培训. Started over 40 years ago by nationally known geriatric psychiatrist, Dr. Peter Rabins, 约翰霍普金斯老年精神病学奖学金的使命是培养和准备下一代老年精神病学专家,他们将成为未来几年指导该领域所需的创新社区和国家领导人.  该奖学金的毕业生继续在学术医学和社区实践中担任领导职务.
