Web to check doctor fatigue

Web to check doctor fatigue : "A new internet tool will help doctors in Australian hospitals determine whether their workloads are placing them at dangerous levels of fatigue. The Australian Medical Association has developed a fatigue risk assessment website that allows doctors to track their work, recreation and sleeping hours over a week and gives them a risk rating. Doctors are thought to be at low risk if they work less than 50 hours a week, at significant risk if they work between 50 and 70 hours a week and at a high risk if they work more than 70 hours."
