1. I think that is all to do with efficiency and saving money. In this context that means having an appropriate level of staff on duty at all times. So less doctors/nurses at quiet times in the middle of the night but enough to handle an emergency if it happens. It should also take into consideration the maximum number of hours doctors can work, so they are not pushed too hard and should have arranged backups so people can be called in if someone is sick or can not work.
