Today Dave and I were, finally, able to discuss what I might do for my project and I think we've got it pinpointed! Back in January where there was a situation and a Code Red alarm went off. However, there was no overhead page, so the staff assumed it was a mock code and did not do anything. It wasn't until the fire department showed up that everyone new there was a real situation. Also, the PBX operators, that are in charge of notifying engineering and security, did not let anyone know that an alarm was sounding.
So, for my project, I'm going to rewrite the Code Red protocol for the surgical center. I think this will be a good project for me to work on. I'll need to meet with someone from the engineering department as well as PBX to identify where the communication breakdown are happening, as well as what should be happening during a Code Red situation.
