NMCSD’s ICU Conducts Code Blue Training.
SAN DIEGO (Sept. 10, 2020) Sailors and staff assigned to Naval Medical Center San Diego's (NMCSD) Intensive Care Unit (ICU) perform a code blue drill on a simulation mannequin in the hospital's ICU Sept. 10. Cardiac or respiratory arrest drills, signified as code blue, are performed on mannequins to ensure proper readiness in the event of real-world, medical emergencies. The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has changed the way many facets of healthcare are conducted, and NMCSD's ICU has adapted some of their techniques and practices to keep both staff and patients safe while delivering the high-quality healthcare they’ve come to expect. NMCSD’s mission is to prepare service members to deploy in support of operational forces, deliver high quality healthcare services and shape the future of military medicine through education, training and research. NMCSD employs more than 6,000 active duty military personnel, civilians, and contractors in Southern California to provide patients with world-class care anytime, anywhere.
