Call Schedule

Call is taken by Urology residents for Scott & White and Central Texas Veterans Health Care System for inpatients and Emergency Room calls. All calls are taken from home; the time spent in the hospital is counted toward the weekly duty hours total.

There are four Urology residents, one of whom is on call at all times. The call schedule averages out one night in three over a four-week period.

The schedule is drawn up in such a way that each resident is not on call more than three nights in a row (e.g., Friday, Saturday and Sunday). Excluding weekends, the schedule should be a one-in-four rotation when possible.

The call schedule is drawn up by the Chief Resident.
