I recently interviewed for an OR position and feel confident they will offer me the spot. Its sounds rewarding and challenging. I am still nervous about the decision and am not sure how I feel about the on call. I previously had a bad experience with on call at my last job (basically wanted you to work 24 hrs), which I felt was incredibly unsafe for me and my patients. Needless to say I spoke up to management but my issues were never addressed. This led me to applying for new opportunities. Seems like the OR is 40 hrs per week M-F. On call once per week on a weekday from 11p-7a and one weekend day every 3 weeks (24 hrs on either Sat or Sun). If you find yourself on a case late into the night they give you a 4 hr sleep break or you can stay and leave early. Does any of this sound familiar to any of you? Any input on your 'on call' would be appreciated. I feel the opportunity is beyond amazing but do not want to waste anyone's time if it is not the right fit for me especially since I'm one of those people that appreciate 8 hrs of sleep. I'm not as young as I used to be! Lol
