Summary: Walk through a strategic framework for mock code training to equip your health care organization with the tools and resources needed to identify solutions to improve patient outcomes through ongoing training and data collection.

Synopsis: This year approximately 290,000 hospitalized patients will suffer a cardiac arrest. Despite advances in resuscitation healthcare and robust training, only about 25 percent of those patients will survive. Building a strategic mock code training program through a standardized framework equips health care organizations with the tools and resources needed to identify and mitigate solutions that will improve patient outcomes through the reinforcement of on-going training and data collection.

Learning Objectives:

Design a customized framework to implement a robust mock code training program within their facility.
Recognize health care organization strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats to implement a robust mock code training program.
Describe factors within a health care organization that may influence or impact the implementation of a mock code training program that includes culture, past performance, and stakeholder buy-in.
Define how a mock code training program aligns with the pursuit of being a high reliable organization.
This presentation will include ways to educate citizens that can lead to a comprehensive change to a culture of excellence and improved CPR training in the community, schools and workplace.
This presentation will include components of a high quality collaborative cardiovascular and resuscitation program in a dispatch, EMS and / or healthcare system that has demonstrated improvement in survival from SCA.
This presentation will include strategies for implementing data collection and quality improvement programs in an ECC system to support accountability and reporting.
