Nice clean area and building
Photo from customer review
So easy and so great to be able to go at my own pace. The videos were really helpful. Will never take another 4 hour class again!!
Thank you. This was an excellent experience overall. The online BLS course was clear and easy to follow, and the in-person skills check-off process was efficient and stress-free. I especially appreciated the opportunity to complete the skills assessment independently, without unnecessary pressure or constant supervision. Everything was well-organized, professional, and convenient. I would highly recommend this program and would definitely come back again to renew my certification.
Extremely easy process to sign up to. Online knowledge portion was simple easy to follow. The skills portion was fabulous. The detailed instructions and reminders emails were much appreciated. As a busy nurse and mom, I loved that I could come in and get this done quickly. Thank you!
Quick, easy, and good communication!
Fast, easy, and excellent communication. A great way for providers to renew CPR Certification!
had a great experience with CPR VAM / Heart Start CPR. The instructions were clear, the process was organized, and the skills session was easy to follow. The self-guided mannequin setup made practicing comfortable and low-stress. Convenient, professional, and a great option for completing AHA BLS certification
The place is comfortable and clean. There are no interruptions and it is quiet, perfect for you to focus. The instructions were clear and you are given time to practice before the assessment.
One of the best bls training experiences I have had. A private quiet space with time to learn the skills at my own pace was a perfect fit for me in my completing my skills test. I will be using them again for my bls renewal and recommending them to coworkers.
This is a seamless BLS training! The coursework is completed online with excellent clarity, intuitive questions, and the ability to leave and return to the course. The hands-on skills are completed without an instructor, but not without support. The instructions are clear before, during and after. The equipment is clean and functions well. Definitely recommend!
Great experience. Computer was extremely helpful with visuals and immediate feedback. Super relaxing and having the space to do the testing was phenomenal.
Good!
