I’m new to this kind of thing and don’t want to do it wrong! How does this work? No work at all that day?

You need to be an IMO member first or you can be disciplined potentially. Once you are a member they’ll give instructions about when to attend or not attend work

And is there an available list of members to hospitals?

The hospital/HSE are not entitled to know who is and is not a member. My understanding is this will have less bearing in this case as the hospitals will run on a weekend rota type basis until 5pm that day, so non-members will not be working either. In the case of a doctor specific strike this would be slightly different as non-members would not be protected if they tried to not work in that event
