TEAM PRIME
A medical emergency - a high acuity low occurrence (HALO) event - can be met with considerable success by those who are able to recognize early trends in deterioration, to mobilize available resources and to intervene with priority-focused agility and flexibility
Contrary to expectations, most medical emergencies happen in non-critical care areas. Health care providers in these settings are faced with acute emergencies often without the benefit of recent practice or proven skills to respond with agility. TEAM PRIME - primary response in medical emergencies - helps build this expertise.
