　　Trainee doctors are being left alone with seriously-ill patients out of hours because highly-paid experienced older staff want to clock off at 6pm.

　　那些高薪有經驗的老醫(yī)師都把嚴重病患留給實習醫(yī)生，因為他們自己想在下午六點就下班。

　　A patient in hospital overnight is 15 times more likely to be under the care of a junior doctor than a consultant, the study found.

　　這項報告稱，留在醫(yī)院過夜的病人受實習醫(yī)生照顧的可能性比受醫(yī)師照顧的可能性要多15倍。
