Simulation Mock Code Facilitator
The Simulation Mock Code Facilitator (MCF) class is designed to reinforce the skills of the healthcare professional with the integration of simulation-based education methodologies for in-situ practice scenarios. The expectation is that MCF will utilize practice scenarios that are current, standardized, and according to American Heart Association (AHA) evidence-based content.
- Demonstrate knowledge and competency of the healthcare professional’s skills with simulation-based education methodologies and debriefing techniques.
- Integrate simulation into mock code scenarios in the clinical setting using initial and post debriefing skills.
- Utilize standardized AHA evidence-based practice scenarios.
Description
Intended Audience:
- AH employees that are interested or required in facilitating mock codes on their units.
Prerequisites
Study the discipline-specific manual (ACLS/PALS/BLS/NRP) for the skills to be facilitated

*** If your AHA provider card(s) were not obtained through the AdventHealth Training Center – CFL, you may be required to complete code blue skills testing in the relevant discipline immediately after class.
To assist with your success:
- During classroom training we will conduct a brief AHA Cardiac Arrest Algorithm review.
- During the simulation breakout sessions, you will get a chance to apply your AHA Algorithm knowledge as the Code Blue Team Leader while also learning how to Facilitate Mock Codes.
Following class, your instructor may determine the need for additional practice as a Code Blue Team Leader. In this case, you will be given an additional opportunity to complete your code blue skills test.
Schedule a mock code session for initial MCF observation
