Hi I'm a junior resident, and while on our Trauma rotation, I've been very dismayed by the pressure the senior residents have had thrust on them to lie on their work hour sheets. Most are going significantly over 80-hours, staying longer than 30-33 hours post-call and unfortunately we have a chairman that implicitly expects this of them. Additionally our program director is not capable of really keeping things in check. It is certainly compromises patient care. Is there any recourse to be taken? Any ideas from any of the other residents?
Thanks...
