Rapid response nurses don’t just handle codes — they help prevent them from happening. Contrary to popular belief, Rapid Response Nursing is not just sprinting from code blue the next and neither is ER nursing. While there are a lot of similarities between these two specialties in Nursing, there are a lot of differences too. In this episode, Aidan RN shares what it was like to transition from the fast-paced ER to the world of rapid response.

We discuss what sets rapid response apart, the mindset shifts that helped him make the switch, and break down cases where their quick action made all the difference — including a subdural hematoma caught just in time, a STEMI with an unusual presentation, and a patient whose only symptom was neck pain.

Whether you’re calling rapid response or considering the role yourself, don't miss this conversation on the skills and challenges that define rapid response nursing!

Topics discussed in this episode:

  • Why transition from ER to rapid response?
  • Differences between ER and rapid response nursing
  • Case study: discovering a subdural hematoma
  • The role of intuition in rapid response nursing
  • Best practices to work with rapid response nurses
  • Advice to nurses considering Rapid Response Nursing
