English translation:be on duty
Explanation:
εφημερία= On Duty(or On Service Duty):-- It is the continuous time, say a Doctor, works in a hospital. It is NOT the same as, 'on-call', which means that a Dr. can be somewhere else, and if called at anytime, has to go and present himself to the situation. He/she can be asleep in their house, but if 'on-call' and if called they have to go to the place of the situation. This is NOT a continuous service of, say, seeing patient after patient for a certain duration .
