What ’s working at a critical access ED like?

For those with long experience working these shops... What’s a typical shift like? How good are your nursing staff? Do you manage/round on admitted floor patients as well? Can you actually get some sleep on overnights? Do you have access to CT scanners? And as an aside, what rate did you get as locums/traveler? The place I’ll start working at sees about 1.4 patients per hour. Pretty good pay. The closest large hospital is actually only about 1.5 hour car ride, so not too bad distance wise.
