Call Specifics: Call is 24 hours, 7a-7p. There is a first and second call on each day. Second call is rarely utilized after 7pm. Weekends follow a pattern where first and second call alternate days so we would never have first call responsibility for more than 24 hours. Call is a MUST. Average volume while on call: First call usually comes in once or twice after 7pm. How many hours are they typically called in on nights & weekends? There are occasional weekend days with no call-in at all, but these are uncommon. There are occasional weekend days with > 18 hours of work, but these are also uncommon. Would have next day off Weekend work varies quite a bit depending upon whether there is someone on call for Orthopedics, etc.. I would think that there is an average of four to six hours of Saturday work from 7 AM to 7 PM and another average of three to four hours from 7 PM to 7 AM. Our weekday call is 24 hours. Most often working 7 AM to 8 PM with another average of 3 to 4 hours during the night.
