Emergency Medication Storage (Crash Cart/Code Box) Survey

Hello everyone,

I am leading a project to understand the best practices for emergency medication storage of ACLS/PALS medications, such as epinephrine, atropine, etc. Usually this means storing medications in a crash cart or separate kit. Would you be able to take this brief 11 question survey to help me understand how your institution stores emergency ACLS/PALS medications?

Here is the link to the survey:
https://jhminursing.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_81zWibqS6RIxYe9

This survey only needs to be completed once per institution. If you know someone at your institution who may better be able to respond to the questions, please forward the link above and/or entire message to them. Additionally, if you are able to share this survey to other institutions in your network, it would be greatly appreciated. There are no limits to which institutions may complete the survey. The survey period ends on January 15th, 2021.

Finally, if you are able to, please email a picture of your ACLS/PALS medication storage container and container layout to dsingh45@jhmi.edu OR upload to livejohnshopkins-my.sharepoint.com/:f:/g/personal/dsingh45_jh_edu/EmXf-mGJn45JgWaIVd0F0AMBNaAlyKDo8S6BsmBCD6n2lg?e=SqQnTU with your institution name as the folder name.

If clicking the links does not work, please copy and paste the link into your browser to take the survey.

If you have any questions, or come across any issues while taking the survey, please email me at dsingh45@jhmi.edu.

Best regards,
