I remember one time during Spanish class I felt one of my seizures coming so I notified my teacher and she was keeping an eye on me checking in on me every few minutes as it take a while, usually 30 minutes before it starts. The last thing that I remembered was learning about the Spanish word vosostros and then everything went black. It’s didn’t even feel like 10 seconds and I woke up to atleast 12 people standing around me in scrubs. Apparently I had my seizure and my teacher did the proper protocol, and when I didn’t wake up and I started seizing a second time she called an ambulance for me and had the school nurse come until the paramedics got their. Apparently I had seized atleast four times, and they had put me on oxygen and had a heart monitor on me incase I stoped breathing or my heart rate slowed down. And was about to get the life support machine ready for me. I was ok. I got to go home the next day. She is still my favorite teacher and I don’t know what would have happened if I was in a different class.

Two years ago, my mother went to the hospital due to a widowmaker heart attack. It wasn't her first heart attack, but it was certainly the worst. They decided she needed open heart surgery, and so that Thursday that's exactly what they did. During the surgery there was a complication where a hole was made in her heart. They tried to close it but every time her heart beat it would rip open the sutures. We were told that if her blood pressure dropped or raised by even a little, the odds were that she wasn't going to make it. Even as the lady telling us finished saying that, we heard, "Code: blue ICU bed 2" come over the intercom. That was my mom's bed. We heard those words an additional two times that night. The surgeon in charge as well as everyone else involved performed things they didn't even think they were capable of, in the surgeon's own words. My mom is alive today.

In the initial invasion of Afghanistan there was a soldier that got shot by an rpg and surprisingly enough it went through his vehicle and didn’t explode. It just lodged itself into the body of a soldier. Normally this would have simply lead to the soldier dying because it’s too dangerous to operate with a live explosive in their body. However, a doctor evacuated everyone from the area and he along side an explosive expert (EOD) worked together to save that soldier’s life! Now that soldier definitely never walked again and will live with aid of a wheel chair forever but he made it! They took that rpg and set it off on purpose in a safe way far from the base.

I was in the ER with my daughter, who developed kidney stones at 14, when I heard "Code Silver" announced. I had no idea what it was and there was no nurse nearby to ask, but I overheard a woman in the cubicle next to ours asking her companion what that meant. After a few awkward coughs, the person stammered out that it means there's an elderly person lost in the hospital. (Sounded like the person knew, but didn't want to frighten the woman) A little while later, a nurse came in to check my daughter's IV; I asked her about the code, and she said that there was an armed person on the loose inside the hospital earlier, but he had been apprehended and taken away. (The next day, I read that the man had come into ER with a loaded handgun and demanded to see someone in Intensive Care, where he wasn't allowed because he wasn't patient's family.)

It's interesting to see the difference in codes in different areas. In hospitals I've worked at a Code Pink is used for fetus in distress/women's obstetrical emergency, a code white is used for an aggressive/violent person, and a code grey is shelter in place. But a code red, black, and blue seem to be the same everywhere.

Well, that's actually because the code for 'missing/taken' infant tends to change a lot. Even in the same hospital or region. This, I'm told, is to confuse predators who might be on the lookout for such codes to avoid being caught. So areas where kidnapping and such are more common also tend to change their child abduction codes more often.

I've always known code pink as a neonatal code blue, and that's from family who worked in hospitals in Pennsylvania when I was growing up, as well as family & myself working in hospitals in Florida later on. I remember the one hospital my dad worked at & that I worked at (twice; what can I say, the first time they needed the help, the second time I needed the money 😸) used "code Adam" for missing kids, code silver (or gray?) was for missing seniors I believe, white for combative persons (as they may need to see the folks in the white coats 😸), I forget the weapons (green?) or severe weather (purple?) ones; sorry, lol, been a couple decades.

So fun that you ended with third degree burns as that's my only ER visit - almost 2 yrs ago now. I had this long flouncy skirt on and it caught fire, because I was standing too close to the fireplace, back turned. I had a bunch of second degree burns on butt, hips, ankles, feet, hands. But the real fun came with the third degree burns all up the back of my right thigh. Luckily the ambulance was able to take me all the way into Philly to a fantastic hospital with a burn center. A whole team of doctors and nurses surrounded me in the ER. I was very impressed with the team approach. There had to be 8 or 9 people checking me out. I thought I would just get bandaged up and sent home, but they admitted me and said the burn surgeon had to evaluate me on Monday (it was saturday when I arrived). So I was all like, ok, fine, I am sure I won't need surgery but I can stay to meet the doc. So Monday comes around and he checks my burns and says, yup, you're getting skin grafts. So that surgery was done on Wednesday, with the strips of the skin for grafts harvested from the front of my right thigh. I was sent home the following Monday. To be honest, it was all pretty traumatic. I put up a video of my 10 days in the hospital and my frugalistas contributed a lot of money towards my hospital bill since I didn't have insurance, which was just amazing. I think when I hit the 2 year mark in Feb, I'll put up an update video and show the pictures again of the original injury and what it looked like after surgery and what the scars look like now. I was at Thomas Jefferson Hospital and every single person involved in my care (except 1 overnight nurse who I thought was going to murder me) was outstanding.

So I used to do hospital security and in my hospital, it was code white instead of code grey. I was in a smaller hospital so I was often solo on take downs. Here's my advice: The moment that security begins to restrain you, comply. It will hurt you less and make for much less paperwork later. If security has to sit with you, we don't wanna be there any more than you do, so chat us up and utilize us to work through your problems. And for the love of god, do not piss off the small redhead nurse, she will fuck you up before security can get there.

I was the one who coded once. Not even in a hospital. I was in an infusion clinic for my first chemo treatment. The nurse had just hooked up my IV not 2 minutes beforehand. I turned red and started having trouble breathing. The doctor that was running the clinic happened to walk by my chair and he ordered the nurses to stop the infusion and give me a shot of epinephrine straight into my IV tube while he went to his office just a few feet away and called a code blue. My oncologist came running into the clinic so fast his coattails were straight out behind him and, on seeing how bad the reaction was, immediately turned stark white and started thinking of different medications to try so I could be treated safely. I think I scared the hell out of everyone there and I KNOW I scared the hell out of myself that day. I’ll never forget that feeling of gasping for breath and not being able to get any air into my lungs. I’ve also been the rescuer in a code blue situation, also not in a hospital. This one was in a school cafeteria. A boy in the class I was with had overstuffed his mouth with food during lunch and part of it got stuck in his throat. He started turning blue while I was getting another student off the stage. The other aide called out to me about him and I gladly traded students with her because she had frozen in her tracks and wasn’t going to be of any help any other way. I grabbed the boy out of his seat, stood him up and started the heimlich on him. Our height difference was too great for that to work though. On noticing that, I bent him over my arm and started giving back blows. He coughed up the food and started hyperventilating to make up for the lack of air and his blue skin slowly started turning back to pink. He was 6 at the time. Now he’s 12 and doing good as far as I know.

I was signing a patient in one day when a Code Blue happened, and it was labour and delivery if I remember correctly (either that or maternity). Either way... the patient's little kid asked what it meant and the parent tried to explain. Within a minute the code was cancelled. The kid was very hopeful while the parent and other close adults and I exchanged looks. We never found out if it was a good or bad cancellation. Definitely a different kind of interaction that day. Made us all pause.

A code blue can "accidentally " be triggered by pushing a code blue button in error. If this occurs, you will immediately hear "cancel code blue" often within seconds of initial call. In high risk areas there can be a code blue button which can be pressed in error. I've had family hit them trying to turn on the lights.

its always weird to see colors linked to different things. The hospital i was in: blue is cardiac arrest in adult, pink is in child., yellow was for a patient dissapearing. White is for violent person, red is fire, black is a suspect package, orange is for an outside sinister. Brown is for internal hazardous material spill, grey is for outside hazardous material spill or toxic leak (gas) , green is evacuation. I can imagine how confusing it could be to go from an hospital to the other who each have their own color codes....

Although the scenario for 3rd degree burns was amusing, my brother and a family friend suffered 2nd and 3rd degree burns to their faces and hands when the safety valve on the propane heater they were using while hunting in the Colorado mountains failed to close when the pilot light went out. All the propane leaked into the tent, they did not smell it, and when they went to light the lantern, the gas ignited. Unfortunately they did not have "cool water" for the burns, they did however have over a foot of new snow. It took several hours of driving to reach medical help. Thanks to the wonderful medical staff, neither of them have noticeable facial scars, and the ones on my brother's hands are only evident if you know what happened.

You will probably enjoy this non sequiter then. I had just come back from a tour of duty in England, where I operated US military-owned vehicles with left-hand drive and US military-owned vehicles and privately-owned vehicles with right-hand drive. I pulled my own POV out of storage, got it ready to go back on the road and, finally, pulled up to the gate and got ready to go add fresh fuel and change the oil. I had been swapping back and forth between vehicles whose steering wheels were on both sides of the vehicle but always driving to the left of center, and I was mindful of the fact that the traffic was on the opposite side of the road from what I was used to. I was constantly reminding myself that the traffic on the near side of the road was coming from the left and traffic on the far side was coming from the right, so when the way was clear I let the clutch out and accelerated. Alas, I forgot one important thing. I accelerated and gained enough speed that I could upshift into second gear, pushed the clutch in, reached for the gear shift . . . and punched the driver's side door with my left hand. And I hit it hard too. That smarted.

Yellow = patient's life is threatened but its vitals are not as compromised as red code, thet still need care ASAP Are considered Yellow code also patient with chest pain. Cyan = patient vitals are okay, cyan code is when you're injured but not on your organs/arteries etc. Green = patient life is not threatened and conscious. Example of people with green code are patient with a broken leg White = patient life is not threatened and conscious. If you have a white color code, you can go directly to your family doctor since you're safe. Then there are other 3 code: Black = patient is deceased.

About code blue, for some reason, I got curious about that one specifically. I couldn't help but wonder whether or not it's really because people turn blueish when they die. Apparently, in 1962 Hughes W. Day, M.D. originates the concept of an acute coronary care unit for heart patients and establishes the first such unit in the world at Bethany Medical Center. Dr. Day and his colleagues also developed the cardiac "crash cart" and the term "code blue." The unit's success depended on the use of a highly trained physician-coronary nurse team to effectively lower the mortality rate from acute transmural myocardial infarction. (from Kansas University Medical Center website)

The last thing that I remembered was learning about the Spanish word vosostros and then everything went black. It’s didn’t even feel like 10 seconds and I woke up to atleast 12 people standing around me in scrubs. Apparently I had my seizure and my teacher did the proper protocol, and when I didn’t wake up and I started seizing a second time she called an ambulance for me and had the school nurse come until the paramedics got their. Apparently I had seized atleast four times, and they had put me on oxygen and had a heart monitor on me incase I stoped breathing or my heart rate slowed down. And was about to get the life support machine ready for me. I was ok. I got to go home the next day. She is still my favorite teacher and I don’t know what would have happened if I was in a different class.

Two years ago, my mother went to the hospital due to a widowmaker heart attack. It wasn't her first heart attack, but it was certainly the worst. They decided she needed open heart surgery, and so that Thursday that's exactly what they did. During the surgery there was a complication where a hole was made in her heart. They tried to close it but every time her heart beat it would rip open the sutures. We were told that if her blood pressure dropped or raised by even a little, the odds were that she wasn't going to make it. Even as the lady telling us finished saying that, we heard, "Code: blue ICU bed 2" come over the intercom. That was my mom's bed. We heard those words an additional two times that night. The surgeon in charge as well as everyone else involved performed things they didn't even think they were capable of, in the surgeon's own words. My mom is alive today.

In the initial invasion of Afghanistan there was a soldier that got shot by an rpg and surprisingly enough it went through his vehicle and didn’t explode. It just lodged itself into the body of a soldier. Normally this would have simply lead to the soldier dying because it’s too dangerous to operate with a live explosive in their body. However, a doctor evacuated everyone from the area and he along side an explosive expert (EOD) worked together to save that soldier’s life! Now that soldier definitely never walked again and will live with aid of a wheel chair forever but he made it! They took that rpg and set it off on purpose in a safe way far from the base.

I was in the ER with my daughter, who developed kidney stones at 14, when I heard "Code Silver" announced. I had no idea what it was and there was no nurse nearby to ask, but I overheard a woman in the cubicle next to ours asking her companion what that meant. After a few awkward coughs, the person stammered out that it means there's an elderly person lost in the hospital. (Sounded like the person knew, but didn't want to frighten the woman) A little while later, a nurse came in to check my daughter's IV; I asked her about the code, and she said that there was an armed person on the loose inside the hospital earlier, but he had been apprehended and taken away. (The next day, I read that the man had come into ER with a loaded handgun and demanded to see someone in Intensive Care, where he wasn't allowed because he wasn't patient's family.)

It's interesting to see the difference in codes in different areas. In hospitals I've worked at a Code Pink is used for fetus in distress/women's obstetrical emergency, a code white is used for an aggressive/violent person, and a code grey is shelter in place. But a code red, black, and blue seem to be the same everywhere.

Well, that's actually because the code for 'missing/taken' infant tends to change a lot. Even in the same hospital or region. This, I'm told, is to confuse predators who might be on the lookout for such codes to avoid being caught. So areas where kidnapping and such are more common also tend to change their child abduction codes more often.

I've always known code pink as a neonatal code blue, and that's from family who worked in hospitals in Pennsylvania when I was growing up, as well as family & myself working in hospitals in Florida later on. I remember the one hospital my dad worked at & that I worked at (twice; what can I say, the first time they needed the help, the second time I needed the money 😸) used "code Adam" for missing kids, code silver (or gray?) was for missing seniors I believe, white for combative persons (as they may need to see the folks in the white coats 😸), I forget the weapons (green?) or severe weather (purple?) ones; sorry, lol, been a couple decades. Heh, I know brown was only ever used as a joke by the nurses/techs

I noticed that too. Where I am, code white is a mass trauma incident (like there was a multi-vehicle collision on the interstate), code gray is storm (which makes sense, because that's kind of the color the sky turns). I don't remember hearing too many of these. They also had "Code Walker" for wandering patients,
So fun that you ended with third degree burns as that's my only ER visit - almost 2 yrs ago now. I had this long flouncy skirt on and it caught fire, because I was standing too close to the fireplace, back turned. I had a bunch of second degree burns on butt, hips, ankles, feet, hands. But the real fun came with the third degree burns all up the back of my right thigh. Luckily the ambulance was able to take me all the way into Philly to a fantastic hospital with a burn center. A whole team of doctors and nurses surrounded me in the ER. I was very impressed with the team approach. There had to be 8 or 9 people checking me out. I thought I would just get bandaged up and sent home, but they admitted me and said the burn surgeon had to evaluate me on Monday (it was saturday when I arrived). So I was all like, ok, fine, I am sure I won't need surgery but I can stay to meet the doc. So Monday comes around and he checks my burns and says, yup, you're getting skin grafts. So that surgery was done on Wednesday, with the strips of the skin for grafts harvested from the front of my right thigh. I was sent home the following Monday. To be honest, it was all pretty traumatic. I put up a video of my 10 days in the hospital and my frugalistas contributed a lot of money towards my hospital bill since I didn't have insurance, which was just amazing. I think when I hit the 2 year mark in Feb, I'll put up an update video and show the pictures again of the original injury and what it looked like after surgery and what the scars look like now. I was at Thomas Jefferson Hospital and every single person involved in my care (except 1 overnight nurse who I thought was going to murder me) was outstanding.

So I used to do hospital security and in my hospital, it was code white instead of code grey. I was in a smaller hospital so I was often solo on take downs. Here's my advice: The moment that security begins to restrain you, comply. It will hurt you less and make for much less paperwork later. If security has to sit with you, we don't wanna be there any more than you do, so chat us up and utilize us to work through your problems. And for the love of god, do not piss off the small redhead nurse, she will fuck you up before security can get there.

I was the one who coded once. Not even in a hospital. I was in an infusion clinic for my first chemo treatment. The nurse had just hooked up my IV not 2 minutes beforehand. I turned red and started having trouble breathing. The doctor that was running the clinic happened to walk by my chair and he ordered the nurses to stop the infusion and give me a shot of epinephrine straight into my IV tube while he went to his office just a few feet away and called a code blue. My oncologist came running into the clinic so fast his coattails were straight out behind him and, on seeing how bad the reaction was, immediately turned stark white and started thinking of different medications to try so I could be treated safely. I think I scared the hell out of everyone there and I KNOW I scared the hell out of myself that day. I’ll never forget that feeling of gasping for breath and not being able to get any air into my lungs. I’ve also been the rescuer in a code blue situation, also not in a hospital. This one was in a school cafeteria. A boy in the class I was with had overstuffed his mouth with food during lunch and part of it got stuck in his throat. He started turning blue while I was getting another student off the stage. The other aide called out to me about him and I gladly traded students with her because she had frozen in her tracks and wasn’t going to be of any help any other way. I grabbed the boy out of his seat, stood him up and started the heimlich on him. Our height difference was too great for that to work though. On noticing that, I bent him over my arm and started giving back blows. He coughed up the food and started hyperventilating to make up for the lack of air and his blue skin slowly started turning back to pink. He was 6 at the time. Now he’s 12 and doing good as far as I know.
I spent 170 days in a hospital back in 2020 and heard most of these a LOT. I also heard walking on sunshine on loop because it's the song that the hospital played anytime a covid patient was discharged.

I was signing a patient in one day when a Code Blue happened, and it was labour and delivery if I remember correctly (either that or maternity). Either way... the patient's little kid asked what it meant and the parent tried to explain. Within a minute the code was cancelled. The kid was very hopeful while the parent and other close adults and I exchanged looks. We never found out if it was a good or bad cancellation. Definitely a different kind of interaction that day. Made us all pause.

Although the scenario for 3rd degree burns was amusing, my brother and a family friend suffered 2nd and 3rd degree burns to their faces and hands when the safety valve on the propane heater they were using while hunting in the Colorado mountains failed to close when the pilot light went out. All the propane leaked into the tent, they did not smell it, and when they went to light the lantern, the gas ignited. Unfortunately they did not have "cool water" for the burns, they did however have over a foot of new snow. It took several hours of driving to reach medical help. Thanks to the wonderful medical staff, neither of them have noticeable facial scars, and the ones on my brother's hands are only evident if you know what happened.

You will probably enjoy this non sequiter then. I had just come back from a tour of duty in England, where I operated US military-owned vehicles with left-hand drive and US military-owned vehicles and privately-owned vehicles with right-hand drive. I pulled my own POV out of storage, got it ready to go back on the road and, finally, pulled up to the gate and got ready to go add fresh fuel and change the oil. I had been swapping back and forth between vehicles whose steering wheels were on both sides of the vehicle but always driving to the left of center, and I was mindful of the fact that the traffic was on the opposite side of the road from what I was used to. I was constantly reminding myself that the traffic on the near side of the road was coming from the left and traffic on the far side was coming from the right, so when the way was clear I let the clutch out and accelerated. Alas, I forgot one important thing. I accelerated and gained enough speed that I could upshift into second gear, pushed the clutch in, reached for the gear shift . . . and punched the driver's side door with my left hand. And I hit it hard too. That smarted.
the fact that there is a compilation to codes and burns is elite

dude i am so happy i found your channel. you crack me up. i worked ER for 4 years and everything you do is spot on!
there was a code pink while i was at a doctor's appointment that happened to be in a hospital. at a certain point they stopped repeating it, and my doc said the little ankle monitors the newborns wear are extra sensitive so sometimes they have false alarms. so yeah, code pink sometimes means missing baby, but sometimes they just bumped a baby's monitor or one got too close to the door
I have been the reason for code grey in the er. Vehicle accident and was still in/out of responsiveness. Most of the time I have no clue where I was and panicked. Finally coming too and realizing I am "tied" to the bed was a shocker. I definitely felt like an ass.
I find it interesting how some hospitals have different codes for things. Code blue and red are often the same though. My mom worked as a nurse for years and code brown did actually mean a mess to clean up at her hospital. However this difference does kind of make sense as the place we live doesn't have tornadoes or huge storms almost at all (I think there are only 2 recorded tornadoes in this area since it was settled and neither of them were fatal. We live in Utah)

About code blue, for some reason, I got curious about that one specifically. I couldn't help but wonder whether or not it's really because people turn blueish when they die. Apparently, in 1962 Hughes W. Day, M.D. originates the concept of an acute coronary care unit for heart patients and establishes the first such unit in the world at Bethany Medical Center. Dr. Day and his colleagues also developed the cardiac "crash cart" and the term "code blue." The unit's success depended on the use of a highly trained physician-coronary nurse team to effectively lower the mortality rate from acute transmural myocardial infarction. (from Kansas University Medical Center website)
He's working really hard and overtime. He's lost just a little weight and hey, aren't your eyebrows a little darker? And about that spanking? Well, I got a raise today. :)

Reddwine~ HILARIOUS!!🤣
I was in the medical field for years and I can relate to your videos so hard❤️🤣
I never saw a doc or nurse this cherish and curses his ass off on everything☺️
Many years ago, when I did volunteer work at the major hospital in town as a teen "Rose Girl", there was a Code, um, I think it was "Code Yellow" - someone had escaped from the locked psych ward! Code Blue definitely meant "hug the walls in the halls, because there's going to be people running."
I finally understand why your voice is very charismatic to my ears, you’re spongebob who went through puberty. Grew up with spongebob. this is a compliment, btw. Keep it up! 👌🏻
Best thing to remember about burn units: there is always a burn unit at a Level 1 Trauma Center. At other hospitals with lower levels of trauma units, they are not as prevalent.
Having to run 3 crash carts from the basement to the 10th floor back to back had me respecting you all so much more.
"Evacuate yo aSsSs" idk but this sent me
Steven, you are so damned funny! I found your channel yesterday and I can't stop watching!
The “Q” word! I’m dying here! 😂😂😂😂 Fear sets in when it’s uttered!! Add the full moon and …. Ugh! I don’t even wanna think about it!
I just found you last night. My stomach hurts from your jokes from laughing so hard. And education I wish school was this fun.
They had a code silver, code blue, and all available staff to the trauma room codes last time I was at the ED. I was wondering what code silver meant. I went outside the hospital to call my ride and tried to come back in when they discharged me. The hospital police wouldn't let me back in to wait for my ride even though it was 90 degrees outside so I walked around to the front of the hospital and went inside to have lunch in the dining hall. Most satisfying thing I've ever done.
I generally love this mans personality
Personal experience- Second child and his security ban was too loose. Lock down of the floor and a nurse ran in my room looking for my child. I was feeding him at the time and she called off the locked down and tighten the ban around his leg. A huge relief off her shoulders and the other nurses. Quick response and excellent timing. ❤
we doctors, we have this kind of patients !!!❤
My boyfriends mom got a horrid second degree burn on her foot and up her leg and her first choice was toothpaste. He yelled at her after I told him it would hurt her skin more. She even said the doctors were wrong and that their Asian home remedies were what’s going to help it. Let’s just say she had an unhealed burn for 5 months before it started to scar. She’s very stubborn but we love her lol.
I was called, no wait, they sent an officer to my house on a Sunday to handle a code gray... I was like seriously, the hospital has drugs you have a stick, tazer and a gun but you're going to come get me... It was handled with no violence and the gentalman became quite compliant after my arrival. I'm not a doctor, security for the hospital or an officer, just a guy with a certain skill set that served and lends a hand when and where needed.
the way he explains all the codes is just 👌
I truly enjoy all your videos. So many memories flood back. Miss it at times.
At our hospital, code gray is code green. We also call a 'rapid response' overhead when its not a full code blue. All of these are accurate haha. - sincerely a hospital security guard
This guy needs to teach classes in this style 😆
I love these because I recently retired after working as a paramedic and an ER tech for 23 years. Then as manager of Urgent Care. I can relate to the feelings and can appreciate the humor. Thanks, Steveio! 💜
Me, an ER registrar who has experienced almost all of these: *quiet crying*
This is everything I needed! He’s hilarious
Hahaha i love your videos especially the body bag video
I love his facial expressions and voices he makes..keep up the good work.👍👍👍
