I'm a PCP working in rural area taking care of around 1500 patients. Because there is a lack of physicians in my conuntry my boss sent me to work overtime in another village with 1200 more patients. So in morning one village and after that another, and am expected to take care of everythig in 8 work hourea because they don't want to pay me more money than minimum. I felt very exausthed the second day already and called to tell them I was feeling overwhelmed and afraid I'll make a mistake because I can't concentrate enough. They told me they cannot do anything about it atm. On top of that the nurse I work with yelled at me because I refused to answer to a phone ringing(which is her job btw) while I wad examining a patient in another room. Since this is not the first time they've done this ( I once worked this way for 6 months) and I never ever refused or complained about it I decided to take sick leave this time because I was worried about myself . And now I am at home feeling bored and gulity and like I am the laziest person alive and don't know if I did the right thing.
