Thanks! I'm not a nurse but working for nursing dep as an analyst. so I have to do code blue analysis. I have never worked for a hospital environment and just trying to understand what's code blue so I can analyses the code blue data.
Thank you for this! I’m in nursing school now and I was confused on how you know what room or person is coding like is it on a computer or just like a bell above all the rooms? If that’s makes sense ☺️
Typically code blue alarms inside of rooms will have a light out of the room flashing or there will be a announcement, and then when someone phones it to page the code team it will announce it over the entire hospital.
So a blood sugar is collected on all patients after a code, not just diabetics? Also, I assume you have to check code status before beginning compressions-- which may mean leaving the room if you are working in a nursing home, for example.. How would that ideally be handled?
Some code sheets require it. Codes are run completely differently outside the hospital setting. You wouldn’t leave the room - you would delegate this to another nurse or CNA.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
