The following are guidelines for how holidays work on the inpatient service

In general, coverage works like weekend coverage: each team must have at least one attending, upper level, and intern rounding.  If in doubt, check amion.com which should be used as the default schedule.

On call team:

• R2/R3 residents: The on call team resident gets coverage (so has the day off). 
• The intern coverage is a little different and usually follows the intern templates.  This changes during the December holidays, when we make sure each intern has at least one of the following days off: 12/24, 12/25, 12/31, 1/1.  Some interns will have 2 of those off.  (Check amion.)  When team B is on call on a holiday, the day call intern on amion has to come in.  The other one may or may not have to (team discretion)

Non Call team:

• R2/R3 from the team: rounds, can go home after rounds and work done.
• Interns: again, based on the wards template.  If team B is not admitting, they may have 2 interns that can round
• On team B, only one intern may be needed on a holiday.  That is at the discretion of the team how to handle that and make the coverage fair.

Night team: (resident NF, intern NF)

• listed in amion- generally no holiday coverage, except occasionally for the intern for a night during the December holidays  

Misc:

• Med Students/PA Students are not asked to work holidays
• Inpatient PA's can work holidays, at their own discretion
