IntroductionFew child psychiatrists are well trained in family-based interventions for military families who experience significant trauma, intergenerational posttraumatic stress disorder, substance abuse, depression and high rates of suicide (Ramsawh et al., 2014). The innovative VA/UCLA/LACDMH Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Training program, sponsored jointly by the VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System (VA) and the Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health (LAC DMH), will address unmet needs of at-risk military families using a family-focused model also applicable to other families exposed to trauma.ObjectivesTo present the curriculum of the VA/UCLA/LACDMH training program and details of the collaboration between the LA VA and LAC DMH.AimsTo highlight how innovative child psychiatry training programs can be developed through creative institutional collaborations.MethodsThe VA/UCLA/LACDMH program family-based model and FOCUS (Lester et al., 2011) intervention were structured to meet regulatory standards of child psychiatry training programs.ResultsA specialized family-based child training program was created to meet the needs of at-risk military families while providing rigorous child and adolescent psychiatry training. Components Early Intervention Family Clinic for At-Risk Children provides family psychoeducation, and identifies children and adolescents at risk.FocusAn evidence-based early intervention for at-risk military families to enhance resilience and mitigate stress through improved coping, increased problem solving, and effective communication.ConclusionsA successful collaboration between the LA VA and LAC DMH can lead to an innovative family-based child psychiatry training program.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Set Up

AimsSomaliland is a de facto state in the horn of Africa. It unilaterally declared independence from rest of Somalia in 1991. Medical education in Somaliland started in the year 2000.Aim of the study is to explore the feasibility of teaching program for the country by its future potential psychiatry educators. The initiative started in 2019 to seek trainees with interest in academic psychiatry and support them with medical education skills. This is intended to prepare them for leading future teaching roles in both undergraduate and residency/fellowship in psychiatryAmoud University wanted to empower junior doctors at the university to have teaching skills needed to set up residency program. The Somaliland government asked Ethiopian ministry of health to offer psychiatry residency program for general practitioners in Somaliland to have future residency and fellowship in psychiatry. Several psychiatry trainees worked with the visiting professor from the United Kingdom who joined Somaliland medical school as visiting professor in psychiatryMethodThe visiting professor supported the trainee in setting up a psychiatry undergraduate training curriculum in line with Somaliland medical school curriculum. Before the teaching methods were didactic and role play based. The faculty introduced different teaching methods including flipchart, small/large group teaching which was student centered education. Students received a online survey to reflect on psychiatry teaching they received. post course survey was conducted at the end of the teaching to evaluate the teaching initiative.ResultSurvey revealed interesting pattern that students preferred class room based teaching in comparison to online teaching. 90 percent of the attendees showed interest in flipchart teaching compared to didactic model. They expressed increasing understanding of the subject matter when they read and discuss among themselves instead of lectures. 70% of students prefer more clinical teaching compared to online sessions.52% liked the new teaching module compared to the lecturing sytle.ConclusionSupervision of early career psychiatrists to undertake future academic psychiatry roles is an important step in building psychiatry faculty in medical schools. As the case of Somaliland this retains trainees in teaching roles in the future to teach undergraduates mental health courses. The other benefit is empowering them to set up psychiatry training program to close the service delivery gap with skilled psychiatrists in the future. Somaliland plans to set up its psychiatry residency/fellowship programs soon after this initiative.

The Impact

The authors examined the impact of intensive early exposure to geriatric psychiatry on the career choice of trainees. All psychiatrists who had completed a six month inpatient rotation on a general hospital psychogeriatric unit as part of their first year of residency were interviewed three to 12 years later with a questionnaire designed to elicit practice patterns, prior interest in geriatrics, and the major influences of the rotation. Nine of 16 trainees had spent more than 50% of their time since graduation treating elderly patients. Those surveyed who were not practicing geriatrics spontaneously reported positive influences of the rotation on psychiatry training in general. The nature of geriatric psychiatry and the clinical issues, as well as the supervisors and educational activities were rated as the most important influences of the rotation. Early experience in psychogeriatrics seems valuable for subspecialty recruitment as well as general psychiatry training.
