Understanding the Code Blue

Coursework Instructions:

This assignment is designed to be fun. Find a clip of a Code Blue in a medical tv show or movie. Watch the clip at first, just to observe and enjoy it. Watch it a second time, and look for things you think are realistic and done well, or what you think is unrealistic. Write a narrative about what you see, and how you feel about it. Explain what seems realistic, and what doesn't. How would the unrealistic parts need be changed to be closer to real life? What do you think could be done if this was a real life situation to improve the code? No APA references needed, but please include the link of the clip so everyone can view and respond to your post.
