It's time for new job signing by final-year residents. A non-compete is one of the important discussion points

It should be totally removed from Hospital-based physicians. It's a big win-win for health systems and physicians.

Why? read this thread.

Non-compete agreement --> it is meant to prevent physicians to compete with their old employers.

#hospitalist
#intensivist
#ER Docs
#Neurologists based at hospitals & others

These specialties don't compete or take patients with them once they leave their current job.

Why? Image
How patients chose ED/Hospitals in an emergency?

- Most of the time it is chosen for patients.
- Based on critical illness, location, a nearby hospital, capabilities of that hospital, and related factors

- ED room is not chosen based on ED doc or hospitalist or ICU doc.

I don’t like posting depressing posts but I think it’s time. When this all began, I would walk into the #COVID unit with the energy of a #hype man at a #hiphop show. I hate COVID19 but I love being an #ICU doctor & getting people better. Today I am mentally & physically exhausted
Other than my AM commute, I’ve seen daylight only once this week - today when I had a few minutes for a #coffee break. Today was also the first time I got home before 10 pm, but before I even had a chance to take my #decontamination shower... Image
I got called about yet another complex #COVID admission by my even more hard-working #PCCM fellows. The amount of face-to-face time required to take good care of these patients cannot be truly appreciated unless you’ve worked in an #ICU. The days are long & the work is relentless

I’m more worried about running out of #intensivist, #RespiratoryTherapists, etc than running out of #ventilators. Given wide spectrum of disease, true expertise in mech ventilation needed. No 1-size-fits-all approach here
