First of all thank you for everyone’s input concerning their hospitals RRT. The information has been very useful. If anyone else has any thoughts on what they bring to the RR calls please continue to respond. Our team consist of an ICU nurse, MOD, ICU resident or intern, respiratory therapist, IV team Nurse and on the days shift our clinical Pharmacist. The MD runs the call. We have a bag with supplies but we were trying to downsize our bag. From your responses we probably will not downsize the bag now but actually add a few items. Some of our ICU nurses felt we did not need any supplies but just our knowledge. Again thank you for clearing this up for us. Robin Seeger RN ICU VA hospital Buffalo NY
