Working Hours
On the weekends, unless they would be doing an urgent/emergent procedure, they come to the hospital and round on the patients with our APP team member.
We do have great APP support to work with the physician on the hospital side. If the physician is in the OR, the APPs round on patients, assist with consults, etc…. This APP is separate from the OR team. In the OR we use first assists instead of PAs/NPs that harvest vein.
