Are there any government regulations on how many people must be in a code team? I currently work in a critical access hospital ER. There are only 4 staff members (1 NP, 1 RN, 1 LVN, and 1 CNA). Lab and rad tech are on call and do not stay in house. This staff is responsible for the ER and Medsurg. Our new CEO is now wanting to put the CNA on call as well. We do not feel that this is safe to cut our already minimal staff. I'm wondering if anybody can find information on patient outcomes involving code teams that we can present as argument against cutting staff. thank you for your help.
