title: House staff on-call scheduling: an intern's proposal.
abstract: House staff scheduling is currently one of the most important issues in graduate medical education. Proposals for regulation arose as a result of mistakes made by exhausted interns, and they involve doctors, hospitals, the public, and authorities. The New York State Department of Health recommendations include restricting work to less than 80 hours per week and shifts to less than 24 consecutive hours.
