How call schedules work in pulmonary + critical care fellowship
We design fellow schedules thoughtfully to balance educational opportunities with clinical responsibilities. Our goal is to provide a structured yet flexible schedule that supports learning and professional growth while ensuring fair workload distribution. Feedback from prior years plays a key role in refining the schedule each cycle.
- Fellow schedules are planned yearly and adjusted based on feedback from the previous year
- Weekend call duties are shared evenly among all fellows
- A dedicated in-hospital intensivist covers the MICU overnight alongside residents
- Each first-year fellow completes a two-week block of weekday night shifts
- All fellows complete one weekend night shift during their training
This approach ensures fair distribution of responsibilities while providing critical clinical exposure in a supportive environment.
