I'm thinking about taking a job that requires you to have to run codes on the floor. I have never had to do this before. I also don't quite understand why the MDs upstairs can't do this themselves. I would love to have a non site director sales pitch answer to my questions so Im posting here. For any of you who have to do this at your job, is it a pain or an issue to have to respond to codes? Does it happen frequently? I'm assuming it would tie up the ED if you have to leave, and what if someone in the ED is really sick? I also get really winded running upstairs. Should this be a deal breaker? Thanks in advance.
