Depending on the situation, it's necessary to check the status of the patient every hour or so. If a condition carries e.g. an increased risk of stroke, there is no way to check for it except asking the patient to move and talk. A good night of sleep is valuable, but if you wake up with a severe paralysis and after the time window that allows e.g. removal of a clot, it's been too high a price for a few nights of good sleep
Sure, the tests I get. It was the briefings that seem weird to not cluster.
In the case of a pregnancy, I'm assuming these "briefings" are things like trying to teach the new parent things they'll need to know when they go home; or giving them status updates about tests done on their new baby if they're in the NICU, and so forth. These all seem like things that could wait.
Is the point to use the infodumping as an excuse to do the tests?
For me it's a difficult field. The thoughts "I could have written this myself, but maybe better" and "I will never understand this" occur with similar frequencies
