What do you think of decreasing the work hours of residents?

I think the very idea that residents have "work hours" is an absurdity.

Are the long hours leading to exhaustion in interns and residents largely a myth? If that's true, then there should be concern for nurses who work twelve hour shifts. I've worked twelve hour shifts in life before, but not in a hospital setting and lived through it.

What do you think of critical care nurses having five 12 hour shifts in a row?
