The program is a one-year ACGME-accredited clinical experience to prepare candidates for certification of "added qualifications" in geriatric psychiatry given by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. The fellowship includes rotations in acute and long-term care facilities including Tisch Hospital, Bellevue Hospital Center, Manhattan Psychiatric Center, and other long-term care facilities. Outpatient experience includes crisis intervention and continuing psychotherapy.

A weekly didactic series throughout the year includes many clinical and research faculty. The program can extend beyond one year and include more research training, depending on the applicant's interests.
