Shift system doest work for medical field.
already our houseman are turning in to clerks because of the shift system. Ask anything also saya tak tau saya shift petang patient masuk pagi..

If ur not a doctor u wouldn't understand. The amount of info that need to pass over at end of shift itself is a recipe for disaster.

that if why passovers are done in the morning during grand rounds with multiple mos and specialist present.

The post call MO can passover to the on call MO with specialist preset to adjust any plans if needed.

If just 1 to 1 In the middle of the night confirm things will be left out.

The thing is simple only shift system can be done with enough workforce. The problem is can the gov afford to pay the work force?

Isn't that the whole problem now gov got no money.

In Australia and NHS rge work hours cap of 12-14 hours only applies to junior doctors (housemen I assume).

I don't know any hosp in the world where their specialist work in shifts.

I dunno la.. But as far as I can see the problem in funding.
and its unfair to ask a group of ppl to take home less salaries because gov got no money while MP and ministers getting so much incentives.
