Mock Code Train-the-Trainer

What Is It?

Mock Code Train-the-Trainer is a program in which we teach staff from inpatient and ambulatory care areas how to run a mock code.  At the end of our 90-minute class, the participants will be able to run a "first five minutes" mock code for staff in their area, focusing on:

Recognition of the code

Calling for additional help

Starting high-quality chest compressions

Using the Philips FRx AED or the Philips MRx in AED mode

Who Should I Contact?

If you have already been in the program, and would like to reserve equipment to run a mock code, use our online form. For the Instructor Number, use "1" as this is not an AHA course.
