Call Schedule

• Intern year: night float for our family medicine inpatient service
• Years two and three: Say goodbye to traditional overnight call. Our family medicine inpatient service uses a night float system for weeknight coverage — promoting better rest and a more predictable schedule.
• Weekends: Weekend call is shared evenly among upper-level residents and scheduled by the chief resident to ensure fairness and transparency across the year.

Shift limits

At our core, we believe that great training doesn't come at the expense of your well-being. That’s why we fully comply with ACGME duty hour standards — with built-in time for rest, reset, and real life.

• Your total duty hours, including all in-house clinical and educational time, are capped at 80 hours per week, averaged over four weeks.
• Call frequency: In-house call is spaced out — no more than every third night, averaged over four weeks.
• PGY-1s: On-site shifts won’t exceed 24 hours.
• PGY-2s and PGY-3s: Can remain up to four additional hours after a 24-hour shift — but only to wrap up and ensure patient continuity (not for new admissions).
• Call from home? Only the time spent in the hospital counts toward your 80-hour limit.

Protected time off

• Every resident gets at least one full day off every seven days, free from clinical or educational responsibilities.
• You’ll have a minimum of 10 hours off between shifts and after in-house call to rest and recharge.
