I was trying to find information about resident duty hours specifically in the emergency department since we are trying to improve scheduling our program. Google searches haven't yielded me all that much information. Residents are limited to 12 hour shifts seeing patient in the ED with an equivalent time off between shifts. Is there limit to how long residents may stay after that shift when writing notes and does the equivalent time off after a shift begin at the time notes and other on shift duties are completed? Residents are limited to 60 hours per week seeing patients in the ED, is that averaged over four weeks? Any additional information or links are much appreciated.
