Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Hospital apologises to junior doctors after threatening to make it harder to rest on late shiftsJunior doctors at a Sydney hospital have been warned that they would be punished for taking naps during quiet night shifts, and lounges would be replaced with "less comfortable chairs".Key points:- A Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Hospital manager told junior doctors not to nap on late shifts- Doctors say it was offensive to overworked staff- The hospital has apologisedIn an email seen by the ABC sent to junior medical officers (JMO) at Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Hospital by their manager, doctors were admonished for apparently sleeping on shift.In it, staff were told a cup of tea may be "just what the doctor ordered", but making themselves a "cosy bed" to nap was not permitted."As each day passes pillows and blankets continue to multiply and are often left (for all to see) all over the lounges clearly indicating that some JMOs appear to be making themselves a cosy bed to sleep while they are meant to be on shift!"I think coming up to Christmas when we would expect staff to be kinder and more supportive, this has been a completely outrageous email to send to burnt out junior medical staff.""
