Background Duty hour limits have shortened intern shifts without concurrent reductions in workload, creating work compression. Multiple admissions during shortened shifts can result in poor training experience and patient care. Objective To relieve work compression, improve resident satisfaction, and improve duty hour compliance in an academic internal medicine program. Methods In 2014, interns on general ward services were allotted 90 minutes per admission from 3 pm to 7 pm, when the rate of admissions was high. Additional admissions arriving during the protected period were directed to hospitalists. Resident teams received 2 patients admitted by the night float team to start the call day (front-fill). Results Of the 51 residents surveyed before and after the implementation of the intervention, 39 (77%) completed both surveys. Respondents reporting an unmanageable workload fell from 14 to 1 (P &amp;lt; .001), and the number of residents reporting that they felt unable to admit patients in a timely manner decreased from 14 to 2 (P &amp;lt; .001). Reports of adequate time with patients increased from 16 to 36 (P &amp;lt; .001), and residents indicating that they had time to learn from patients increased from 19 to 35 (P &amp;lt; .001). Reports of leaving on time after call days rose from 12 to 33 (P &amp;lt; .01), and overall satisfaction increased from 26 to 35 (P = .002). Results were similar when residents were resurveyed 6 months after the intervention. Conclusions Call day modifications improved resident perceptions of their workload and time for resident learning and patient care.
