Code blue button disabled staff NOT notified

Thoughts on level 1 trauma hospital code blue buttons disabled and staff NOT notified. Management aware code blue buttons disabled for weeks and failed to notify staff.  Will be weeks possibly months before activated. What are your thoughts? Thanks for any/all replies

I don't mean this harshly, just realistically:

On par for the way hospitals operate. It isn't worth getting riled up--by that I mean that a lot of these things are annoying (at best) but they aren't going to stop, there are no consequences to the ones who decided to let this happen, no one is going to get in trouble for this and likely no laws were broken. It's just another day in management world.

Wasting your precious life and sanity on it is not advised.

 

 

    My few short years so far working a regular suburban ER and I have smacked the code Blue button 3 times already, and thanks be to God they worked, because I was assigned 4 rooms that were around the corner from the nurses station  so that if no one was sitting right at the nurses station no one would hear me yell.
