Code II Team Training

Course Description:

Picture
The Code II Training is a 4-hour course designed to prepare nurses and respiratory therapists for their roles on the hospital's Code II Team, including responding to outside events on the hospital grounds.  The course begins with a discussion/classroom portion to review specific Code Team role responsibilities and expectations, resuscitation medications, American Heart Association 2010 ACLS updates, First Response skills, effective communication techniques, and a review of current Code II data at Regions Hospital.  In efforts to reinforce the classroom content, participants will act in their assigned Code Team role in a simulated mock code event.  Each simulated mock code is followed by a debriefing session to discuss the event in more detail.  The course is structured to offer an interactive learning opportunity to practice specific Code Team roles, effective communication techniques, and develop team skills in a realistic setting.

Instructions:

1.  View the online course "Code II Pharmacology".  This is a narrated presentation--ensure that  your  
computer's volume is turned up.
 
The narrated program is approximately 30 minutes long.
