Q? about 80 hour work week!

[goinverted]

Hey everyone, I am writing a paper for medical anthropology on the attitudes toward the 80 regulated work week for resideny programs and would appreciate your input. I'm sure most of you would have more first hand experience than those in the pre-med and med-student forums.

1. How do you feel about the 80 hour regulation?

2. How do you think they will affect resident learning abilitiy?

3. How do you feel it will affect malpractice?

4. Do you feel it will make the idea of becoming a doctor less overwhelming?

5. Do you think it will have an effect on the way older physicians view their replacements?

6. Do you feel that the 80 hour limit will be adhered to or will it be taken more as a loose rule, and why?

Thanks everyone. It is just your opinions so feel free to express them.
