minus-squareBlue_Morpho@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·2 days ago“First-year residents earn $66,628 and seventh-year residents $84,376,” That should be published as $/hr and being “on call” should also counts as hours.
minus-squareDarrell_Winfield@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·2 days agoI did that math one time on my 36hr shift solo covering the trauma/surgical ICU. It came out to less than minimum wage. And the current rate for residents for my program is less than $60k, which is higher than when I was a resident.
