Truck drivers have strict limits on the number of consecutive hours they can work.
Why are medical professions regularly encouraged to work far beyond the limits of human capability in high stress situations?
Don’t give me the “patient care continuity” bullshit. A nurse covering a double 12 hr shift or a resident huffing adderall to make it through a 36 hr shift is not in the patients’ interests.
Medical training is still very elitist and rooted in old traditions. They’re not that far removed from the days of “Doctors are gentlemen and don’t need to wash their hands”. The hours worked and the types of people you need to know just to get admitted to medical school are some of the first things that need to change.
