Off Her SCDs: The Full Shift

You saw her on TikTok: post-op knee, took off her SCDs, suddenly can't breathe. Now work her whole 12-hour shift.

  • 9 decisions from 0700 handoff to 1800. The monitor up top changes with every call you make.
  • Wrong or late calls make her worse. Fast, right calls turn her around.
  • interactive items: select-all, drop-down SBAR, matrix, trend and a bowtie.
  • Full debrief at the end, then a 10-question PE drill.
