On duty hours

In addition, there should be at least 10 hours of rest between duty periods and an off day each week.PGY1 doctors cannot be scheduled for more than 24 hours of continuous active duty managing patients. For those who have completed a 24-hour duty period duty period, their hand-overs to colleagues or other activities (e.g. educational activities) should not take more than an additional six hours.
