Back-Up Power, Red Outlets/Flashlights: Hospital Building: All critical clinical equipment should be plugged into the red outlets (East Wing only) which are on emergency generator power when city power is disconnected. The majority of the West Wing does not have red outlets as the entire wing is provided with emergency power. The East Wing primarily has red outlets which are located only in key clinical areas, patient rooms. Off-Site Buildings: Off-site buildings do not have emergency power. Battery back-up lights are provided to assist with evacuation during loss of power and are only available for 30-45 minutes after loss of city power. Each department should have flashlights available for use during emergency situations.

Defective Equipment Labels, Location & Use Of: Defective equipment labels are to be utilized for any item that is a hazard or may cause injury to another individual.

Reporting/Response of Cardiac Arrest: Hospital Building: Ext. 1003 to overhead page "Code 99" for internal medical assistance. Off-Site Buildings: Dial 911 then contact Quality Management during business hours or the Nursing Supervisor after-hours. Both areas need to complete an unusual occurrence report for this type of incident.

Reporting/Response of Fire, Code Red (RACE): Follow the fire response acronym "RACE" Rescue, Alarm, Confine, Extinguish or Evacuate.

Hospital Building: Contact Housekeeping or if an emergency situation page "CODE ORANGE" for response. Off-Site Buildings: Contact Engineering at ext. 1808 during business hours and the Nursing Supervisor after-hours. All "hazardous material spills/exposures" should be documented utilizing an unusual occurrence report. Depending on the size and hazard rating the spill can be cleaned-up by either the employee who caused/found, housekeeping, engineering, and/or an external contracted vendor.

Reporting/Response of Infant/Child Abduction: Hospital Building: Dial ext.1003 x to overhead page "Code Pink (child or infant)". Each department should complete a sweep of all areas within their department and assist to monitor doors, hallways, elevators the code is activated.
