1 DESCRPTON/OVERVEW ock Codes provide learning opportunities and play an integral part of clinical readiness for patient emergencies. Holding mock cardiac/respiratory arrests or code situations may expose common failures and gaps in knowledge in rapid response with CPR and other life-saving care. ock codes also set up powerful incentives to sharpen emergency skills and provide immediate learning/training opportunities. The goal is to practice skills, expand knowledge and build self confidence in a safe and controlled environment. REFERENCES GET WTH THE GUDELNES. (2017, ay). Resuscitation Fact Sheet. Retrieved October 10, 2017, from American Heart Association: ock Code Blue Scenario Requested by and Developed for Registered Nurses. Cureus Dec; 8(12): e938. Published online 2016 Dec 23. doi: /cureus.938. Kerry-Lynn Williams, Janice Rideout, Sherry Pritchett-Kelly, elissa cdonald, Paula ullins-richards, and Adam Dubrowski AREAS OF RESPONSBLTY This guideline applies to all areas that provide patient care. The Unit Director ensures that all licensed staff, giving direct patient care, has an opportunity to participate in a mock code. GUDELNE STEPS 1. Each unit will critique four (4) code incidents per year. An incident is defined as an actual code or a mock code. The critique form will be completed for either type of incident and kept on file for three (3) years. 2. The unit director or designee is responsible for ensuring four (4) critiques are done per year and documented. Units may do more than 4 mock codes per year. f not already addressed during the event, an improvement plan will be formulated, completed, maintained with the critique, and relayed to staff within ten (10) days. However, no improvement plan is required if remediated at the time of the critique and relayed to staff directly.
