So yesterday I've had my first work day at kid's psychiatric ward at a local hospital. It went well, but something struck me as really and I wanted to know if it's really that odd or not: One of the Pdocs asks us to call every single one of his clients the day before a session is scheduled to remind them. If they don't answer we have to try a few more times in the morning before the session.

I've never heard of a T/Pdoc doing this before and personally I would hate it if T did that to me and might have quit therapy if she did. I will do it as I won't jeopardize my job over this, but still would like to have other opinions on this.
