Code Yellow
A "Code Yellow" is a hospital emergency alert that indicates a potential internal emergency, such as a missing patient or a security threat. This code helps staff respond quickly to ensure the safety of patients and personnel. Each hospital may have specific protocols for handling a Code Yellow situation.
During a Code Yellow, hospital staff are trained to follow established procedures to locate the missing individual or address the security issue. This may involve searching the facility, monitoring exits, and communicating with security personnel. The goal is to resolve the situation efficiently while maintaining a safe environment for everyone involved.
