FOREWORD  \nHospital Medicine is a distinct subspecialty of medicine that was first conceived in 1996.[1] Thereafter, in recognition of the importance of specialists in acute hospital medicine, healthcare systems have rapidly established hospitalist programs worldwide.  \nExpert academic hospitalists who authored this curriculum are the pioneers of hospital medicine in Saudi Arabia. Dr. Mubashar Sultan Kharal is an internist and specialist in quality and patient safety, with a wealth of experience as a hospitalist. He is ‘double-boarded’ with American Board certification in both Hospital Medicine and Internal Medicine. Dr. Mohammad Al Qahtani, a member of the Board of Internal Medicine at the SCFHS, also recognized the benefits of hospitalist programs during his fellowship training in North America. Dr. ‘Siraj’Rajkumar Rajendram was trained at Oxford University Hospitals, and was one of the first physicians in the United Kingdom to obtain specialist certification in Acute Medicine. Uniquely, he also has specialist certifications in Internal Medicine, Anesthesia, and Intensive Care.  \nProf. Salih Bin Salih is the Chairman of the Department of Medicine at King Abdulaziz Medical City, Riyadh, and a Professor of Medicine at King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences. He has over 20 years of experience as an examiner of the Saudi Board of Internal Medicine. He was previously the Chairman of the Examination Committee and a member of the Scientific Council for the Internal Medicine residency curriculum at the SCFHS.
