Code Lavender
In healthcare, Code Lavender is a workplace crisis intervention tool used to provide peer support to nursing staff following traumatic events.[1][2] The program is designed to reduce occupational burnout.[3][4][5] Intervention is meant to be immediate with ongoing support through employee assistance program (EAP).[6] Beyond emotional support, a code lavender may include aromatherapy, massage, mindful snacking, meditation, and pet therapy.[7]
The code was first developed by Earl E. Bakken at North Hawaii Community Hospital.[8]
