HOUSE officers (HO) in government hospitals seem to be a controversial lot. I am a senior doctor in one of the government hospitals and interact a lot with HOs. So are they really that problematic?
The answer is not really. I want to refrain from comparing what the working hours used to be previously. Yes we worked 100-hour weeks and they only have to do 65-75 hours under the new Health Ministry directive.
