Hospital Emergency Codes

Emergency codes are color-coded indicators used to alert all members to potential problems that may arise in healthcare facilities. These codes include criteria on how to respond to a specific situation, from direct attacks on staff members and extortion events to cardiac arrest. Emergency codes help hospital staff understand how to manage emergencies effectively. Depending on the type of facility, emergency codes may be generated by internal administrative or surveillance personnel.

The emergency code can be initiated by dialing the set numbers from all the internal phones of the hospital. The system can serve economic, safe and different purposes by using the existing telephone infrastructure of the hospital. These systems consist of hospital infrastructure, pager, system switchboard and web software. Emergency codes are initiated by hospital staff, not by patients. Status reports, call quality and performance statistics, emergency code dates and times can be examined by entering the system from authorized computers connected to the hospital computer network.
