Imagine being able to cut your hospital's code blue events outside of critical care in HALF in just six months. That's exactly what happened when Sarah built her hospital's rapid response team from the ground up.
Nurse Gwenny takes over the show to find out how she did it, from the pitch that got the program started to the skills that actually matter on rapid response teams. She also shares what disqualifies a candidate even when the resume is perfect, why so few resources exist for rapid response training, and how she’s filling that gap herself.
Whether you're hoping to start a rapid response program at your hospital or just want to feel more confident the next time you call one, this episode is for you.
