    The Rapid Response Team (RRT) saves lives and decreases the risk for harm by providing care to clients before a respiratory or cardiac arrest occurs. Although the RRT does not replace the Code Team, which responds to client arrests, it intervenes rapidly for those who are beginning to decline clinically. It would be appropriate for the RRT to intervene when the client has experienced a 52-point drop in blood pressure. Monitoring the client’s postoperative status, maintaining a postoperative flow sheet, and notifying the physician of a change in the client’s status after a medication change would not be considered activities of the Rapid Response Team.…

    Every year the CRCT, short for the Criterion-Referenced Competency Test, is given to Georgia students in grades one through eight, usually in the springtime. This is a multiple choice test that helps show educators, parents, the students themselves and the world through collective data what a student knows about the set of standards taught in Georgia classrooms. Before the students are asked to take the CRCT teachers and parents are always trying to develop new ways to prepare students for the test. There is said to be few specific strategies that assist with knowledge review and test preparation. Most educators believe that for students, one of the top strategies to do well on the CRCT is to attend school so teachers can teach you—either in the classroom or in an online or home-school setting! As a future proficient educator, I believe that while preparing students for the CRCT, effective instructional strategies should be used as well as other tips followed if need. In my short but vital experience of being on the field in a classroom setting, this has shown to be one of the few that should be included in the preparation process.…
