Hi guys,
On neuro prac this week we had a 57 year old guy (stroke patient with concurrent heart problems) start to deteriorate in the physio gym. We didn't have a supervisor with us so it was just 4 students and the guy. My advice for everyone out there is to revise the signs and symptoms of a patient deteriorating and find out how to call a code blue on each of your pracs. We ended up calling a code blue and the guy is ok, but it was really hard to know if we were doing the right thing at the time.
