I just want to see if I am following you correctly.
You are on the night shift , you don't do much, especiially on the weekends. So you effectively want weekends off by creating an on-call status where they can page you if there is a change in schedule or an influx of patients, and you can then call people from home to make arrangements for coverage or whatever?
Sounds ok . .. except . . . how are the going to compensate you? Are you hourly or salary? IT sounds like they are paying x-amount of hours of payroll that they really don't have to . . . which is ok, but if they are going to agree to your proposal won't they just eliminate your job?
I mean they aren't going to pay you to be at home. They could just expand the responsibilities of a salaried administrator to cover weekend calls.
Anyways, apologies in advance if I am misreading your situation.
Note: An aphorism: Never make it perfectly clear to the people that pay you that you are superflous.
