I recently joined a volunteer program where I spend time with terminal patients in their final moments. It is a great program and has touched me so far...as these people typically have no friends or family. The goal is to make sure they do not die lonely and alone, rather that they have someone there to comfort them in their final moments.
My question is a rather minor one- For this program I am "on call" for 48 hours a month..and by on call I mean I need to be there within 10-15 mins or so..so I make sure I am close to the hospital during those hours. In terms of time spent in the patients room I probably spend anywhere from 10-15 hours a month. I'm just a little confused on how to count these hours since I'm on call 48 hrs/month. Thanks
