Episode description

Oftentimes the benefits of a vacation are felt prior to even setting flight or hitting the road. It’s something to look forward to – and that can carry you through even the toughest of workdays. We know ER docs have a unique job when considering the hours and responsibilities, but it doesn’t stop there – PTO and flexibility are also vastly different from not only other job types in America, but even different jobs within emergency medicine itself.

On today’s episode, we’ll discuss the importance of building in vacation time, talk about the financial opportunity costs of taking vacations, and get into prioritizing the right kind of time off to help sustain a lasting career.
