 Here's what my hours look like as a full-time doctor. Usually I wake up at the hours of 5 to 5.30. I have to be at the hospital at 7. It's about a 30 minute drive. So usually I'll be getting my shower, my coffee at this time, and then get it ready to go to work. Once I've gone to the hospital at 6.45 or 7 o'clock for the next 30 minutes, I'll read about new patients that I may have gotten overnight added to my list, as well as old patients that I was already taking care of yesterday. And then now between anywhere from 7.30 up to 8.45, I'm gonna go ahead and see all of my patients. Most of my visits are anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes. Next, between the hours of 10 and 10.30, I meet with other staff members, such as social workers, physical therapists, pharmacists that are taking care of those specific patients. To try to figure out a game plan of anything I may need that may get in the way of that patient going home. If I'm part of the afternoon crew, I'd finish my work and then starting at 3 p.m. I'd get rolling admissions while I'm still managing my patient's work. And then basically at 7 p.m. I can go home. If I'm not part of the afternoon crew, once it's 3 p.m. if I feel like everything has been done, everyone is stable and I'm good to go, usually I'll go ahead and drive home and then work on my work computer, answer any messages from nurses, and then hang out with my wife and my dog.
