Once you hear it over head then everyone knows what their roles should be (insert eyeroll icon here). The important ones (ie doc, 2 techs, 2 nurses) are on a beeper and at home where they don't even hear the overhead call (unless it's during the day of course!!)Traceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11249083676049288115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521758043819496016.post-88726416925964092552008-06-16T11:53:00.000-04:002008-06-16T11:53:00.000-04:00Hey thanks for linking over to my blog.

I didn't think that possible.<BR/><BR/>It is the poison of political correctness - you can't offend anybody, even if it is at the expense of safety and good patient care.<BR/><BR/>By the way... why do they feel the need to call code for an angioplasty? Don't they have pagers for that? Considering that the angioplasty team consists of a doctor and 2 nurses and 2 techs (usually) do they really need to call this one overhead?Bradenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14501547142655151969noreply@blogger.com
