Mock Code Blue
Lesson Plan
Teach student's Purpose of Code Blue: This is signal given over hospital's intercom that a patient's heart has stopped (in technical terms, cardiopulmonary arrest). This can spell a critical moment when team of providers (i.e. 'code team') rush to resuscitate the patient. The color blue is often used to signify the emergency.
Mock Code Blue: would first discuss and instruct student through the steps then have them perform on a dummy and/or watch a video so as to reinforce experience.

E. Would append checklist ( code blue drill competency validation accessed at http://www.goodthinkinginnursing.com/pdf/code_blue_drill.pdf ) to students so that they can go over the situation and record their strengths and weaknesses when doing mock display.
