This week on Codeheads, we’re breaking CPR out of the classroom and throwing it into the real world. Becauselet’s be honest, codes don’t happen on clean floors and tables with perfect lighting and neatly placed equipment.

We dive into what it actually means to train for reality: adapting CPR education to the environments people work in, whether that’s the back of an ambulance, a crowded ER, or a chaotichospital ward. From space constraints and team dynamics to noise, stress, and unpredictability, we explore how context changes everything—and why your training should reflect that.

Train where you work. Train how you practice.Because when it’s go time, there’s no such thing as a simulation.

The brutality and frantic pace required to save a life can shock and traumatize onlookers. As E.T., the Extra-Terrestrial, remains in cardiac arrest, his earth family witnesses this code alone. No staff support or guidance, no pastoral care, not a single social worker in sight. Fresh off our talk with Dr. Katie Hurley, we break down this agonizing moment.
