In my opinion, Emergency medicine are the department which is most hectic and fast paced. For you to survive in it try to make most out of your breaks and relax.

MBBS internship is overall hectic but departments like medicine, surgery and obs can be more demanding

To achieve work life balance in these departments time management is the key. Take care of your body by sleeping wherever you can and eating healthy.
