7on7off schedule. 2 docs covering a 24-bed unit so busiest day is 12 patients each, lightest day is typically 8 each. The opposite week is 2 docs, therefore total team is 4 docs. Work 182 shifts per year. Salary 303K. Days start around 8am, end between 2 and 5pm depending on meetings, court, various other issues. Part of larger health system but psych unit is off campus so med/surg/ED consults are completed by hospital consult psych team, inpatient docs cover only inpatient.
Does this sound pretty typical? Way better than average job, worse than average? Should admin be hassling us for leaving at 2? Are we getting away with anything?
