On a given day there is only one hospitalist and an ER physician in-house. Surgeons are not always present.
While in-house, hospitalists are expected to run codes and rapid responses. The ER physician will respond but if they see the hospitalist is in-house, they usually go back down to the ER.
Vent management is required. There is no Pulm/Crit care support available at the hospital.
