Overview

What We Don't Teach in CPR Class explores the part of emergency response that begins after the scene is quiet. CPR, First Aid, BLS, and ACLS courses teach skills, algorithms, and procedures. They prepare responders to act. What they rarely address is what happens afterward, when the adrenaline fades, questions surface, and responders are left to process the experience on their own. Written by a veteran BLS and ACLS instructor and former paramedic, this book examines the emotional, cognitive, and reflective aftermath of emergency response. It speaks directly to responders, instructors, and educators who understand that correct action does not always lead to expected outcomes, and that experience does not end when the call does. This book does not offer therapy or clinical diagnosis. Instead, it provides calm, grounded insight into common reactions such as doubt, stress, disrupted sleep, emotional distance, and the search for meaning. It also addresses how instructors and institutions can speak honestly about these realities without undermining confidence or standards. Topics include: The quiet moments after an emergency Stress, doubt, and replaying events The difference between shock, stress, and trauma Talking about emergencies, or choosing not to Peer support and shared experience Faith, values, and personal frameworks Teaching honestly after years in the field What We Don't Teach in CPR Class is written with restraint, respect, and clarity. It is designed to complement existing training by preparing the whole responder, not just for action, but for what follows.
