I started cutting back on the number of shifts I was doing per month.

When I was doing full time, I was doing 10 to 12, 12 hour shifts per month.

And they were all night shifts, again, in a small rural critical access hospital.

And, you know, you'd be up from 6 p.m.

until probably 3 a.m.

just on your feet the whole time.

Going back and forth, seeing patients, you know, we were very crowded.

And again, we were understaffed and under-resourced.

So typically there would be 10 to 15 patients in the waiting room at any given point and another 10 to 15 patients on your trekking board at the same time.

And at night, you're the only doctor in the hospital, so you're also taking care of all the patients upstairs.

Which, you know, mostly was the med search nurses would do.

But if something happened or, you know, they needed a doctor at the bedside, that was you.

You would drop everything in the emergency room and go upstairs.

So somebody was coding upstairs, you had to go upstairs and run the code.

So I started backing off on those shifts and I went from...

10 to 12 to 9.

And then I started doing 7 per month.

And then things were getting quite toxic at that workplace because, again, we were under-resourced and, you know, admin didn't see eye to eye with us when we asked for more.

And I was also always behind on my charts because I was struggling, you know.

So I thought, maybe the problem is I need to stop working nights.
