The Nutrition Academic Award received by Tufts University School of Medicine strengthened our first-year Nutrition and Medicine course and clearly resulted in more nutrition in third-year clerkships and residency programs. Standardized patient cases in nutrition counseling for cardiovascular disease and weight loss were developed and incorporated into the clerkships and residency programs in internal medicine and family medicine. This was a value-added benefit that provided practice in initiating lifestyle changes and motivational skills, while expanding nutrition education. Eight standardized patient educators were trained in collaboration with physicians in internal and family medicine. Six slide shows on nutrition topics, 1-2 h each, were developed and included clinical cases, dietary analysis, and patient handouts. The Medicine Clerkship included 4 nutrition sessions and the standardized patient experience, whereas the Family Medicine Clerkship included 1 nutrition session and the standardized patient experience. Working with faculty in the Department of Family Medicine, we developed a nutrition mentoring program for the family medicine residents and used 3 nutrition messages that were a modification of the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet to teach diet evaluation, intervention strategies, feedback from nutrition referrals, and follow-up. Seven sessions on nutrition and chronic disease with cases were offered to the residents in family medicine, which concluded with a nutrition intervention session using standardized patient educators. This expanded nutrition program in internal and family medicine along with the standardized patient experience receives excellent ratings from physicians, residents, and medical students.
