Hi, I am a new em grad out in the real world. i am curious as to how other em groups out there do a "call schedule." it seem like I am on call at least twice a month and usually get called in to fill a shift...pushing my monthly shift load to about 18 (9 hour shifts)...i have done as many as 20 shifts. Since i am new to all this i was not sure how standard this is...i have heard its not. We are medium size group, about 16 full timers and more part time and per diems. Any feedback would be helpful...needless to say I am already overworked and burned out a bit even before taking my boards....not good. i am hard worker and am happy to pull my own weight but i feel this is worse than what i went through in residency.
Thanks
Thanks
