“Doctor Brown” is a code word often used in hospitals to alert security staff to a threat to personnel. If a...

That may be so, but a "Code Brown" is much more frequently used in hospitals.

Don't worry though...It has nothing to do with a threat to personnel

A "Code Brown" means someone (usually a patient) just "soiled themselves" and needs to get back into bed or get their shoes changed.

Usage: "I have a LOL (little old lady) with a code brown in room 226; can you help?"

Code Adam was invented by Walmart but it is now an internationally recognized alert. It means “missing child”. ... As soon as the alert is heard, security staff will begin to monitor the doors and other exits. If the child is not found within 10 minutes, the police are alerted and a store search begins.

Relevant factoid: the majority of abducted children are dead within 4 hours, most of the rest within 24.

years ago, back in my college days, some friends and I were at busch gardens, Virginia. On one roller coaster, one of them decided to pull out his “pinch hitter” and fired it up at the top of the coaster, which was right in front of a video camera. oops. we got to the end of the ride and there were several guards running around talking about a”10-2” . we managed to escape, and my buds called any subsequent pinch hit from then on as a 10-2. i had forgotten about that til now.
