Notes:

Geriatric medical care and palliative care are provided to patients who can no longer get out to see their doctor or for whom going to a doctor would be an undue burden. From its inception the program has worked very closely with the Little Sisters of the Assumption Family Health Service-a nonprofit community-based organization that works with the people of East Harlem to address the physical, emotional, educational, and spiritual dimensions of family health. While the relationship with the Little Sisters remains extremely strong, the program has expanded so that it now works with nursing services throughout New York City.

Four physicians, two nurse practitioners and several community groups are involved in the program. Additionally, all second year residents spend one month going on home visits. The choice of second year for this rotation was to ensure that residents had sufficient experience before going on home visits, but were given an antidote to the cynicism that often affects residents.
