As an instructor lost consciousness, students calmly responded, sought help, and cared for both their instructor and each other, demonstrating that compassion and leadership often emerge in the moments we least expect. The experience also became a powerful reminder that those who spend their days caring for students must extend that same care to themselves—because supporting others begins with ensuring we are well enough to do so.
