All facilities in the EFD will be transitioning to using Plain Language to announce emergency codes/alerts – Medical, Security, & Facility. We are converting to this format of announcing our codes to improve the safety and responsiveness of all within our facilities – our patients, visitors, and staff. We are not changing how the staff calls codes, what will change is how the operator announces codes.
Please review the attached huddle card and ensure you are aware of the Emergency alert process for your facility.
Thank you for your attention to PATIENT SAFETY!
