We believe you can thrive at any age!

The goal of the Kaiser Permanente Fontana Fellowship in Geriatric Medicine is to produce new leaders who will teach excellent care of older persons and/or conduct aging-related research at medical schools, teaching hospitals, academic nursing homes, and other sites serving elderly individuals.  Most graduates will have a teaching or research career emphasis.

The one-year Kaiser Foundation Hospital geriatric residency educational program is organized to provide a superior educational experience in geriatric care in a managed care setting to postgraduate physicians.  The residents will gain the competency to manage the entire gamut of geriatric care and serve as a consultant to other medical providers.  Upon completion of the residency, the postgraduate physician will be able to sit for the Certificate of Added Qualifications (CAQ) in Geriatric Medicine.
