Hey nocturnists! I'm wondering what schedule you're working. Is it working for you? Was there a different schedule that you have worked that worked better? I'm contemplating a change.
Currently I'm doing 7 on 7 off switching on Tuesday night (primarily because that matches up with the day shift day they switch). It's frustrating when I want to take a vacation having to switch with my counterpart who is a bit difficult to switch with. I'm contemplating switching on Sunday night. Any thoughts?
My background: FM trained in a program with heavy hospital training. I've been doing adult only nocturnist work since 2014 in a mid sized community hospital or a small regional hospitals (60-120 beds). Solo coverage 7p-7a, open ICU with minimal pulmonary backup (at least at night). 4-8 average admissions per night.
