20 Best Emt Programs In San Jose, CA (2022 Updated)

Was disappointed because I had to walk my son on campus to show him his class where they posted the wrong number on the door. Glad I spoke to Christina at EOPS who was VERY helpful and helping my son find his classes and helped him with a computer. Thank you so much Christina for the awesome job for looking out for your students.Marbella Barrios

Campus is renovated and technologically upgraded for the better over the past 10-15 years. Hope to attend more events and concerts. COVID-19 safety protocols were well organized and enforced. Plenty of parking and charging ports for EVs. Bicycle friendly.André Thom

Went there for several semesters. Good student activities. Involved a student body, good course selection, knowledgeable staff and the DRC student services center is super helpful.Alana Carmack Mohacsi

The administration is not interested in offering equal access to education for parents who are looking to get one. The college is not interested in reestablishing the on-campus child care center. Also the administration knew the science building chemistry hoods were not functioning properly for years and never let students know. The professors are incredible but if you are a mother good luck because the college doesn't care that in order to access education, women with children (those who require an education for a chance to improve their children's future!) need some equitable student services. Don't take my word for it scroll through the reviews. Most reviewers are male even though majority of students who attend the college are women. Read into it what you will but the facts remain that the college has a child care center on campus but refuse to renovate it even though property taxpayers agreed to pay for it (measure g 2004).Melissa Martinez

The college incorrectly listed me as a non-California resident. When I attempted to fix this, I found that I could not get in touch with ANYONE from the business offices. Eventually, they started having a debt collector call me because I wanted to sort out the residency issue so that I would not be charged nearly $1000 for my classes. This has been going on for months now, I attempt to call their offices almost every week and no one answers me. I'm beginning to suspect that they are just trying to force me to pay the non-resident fee so that they can get some extra cash. All in all, I have had a horrible experience with the administrative services, and if I could get on the line with anyone, I would have been happy to have paid the appropriate tuition months ago.Laura Israel

Overall, the colleges is good. However, other colleges are doing much better. $ stars for the efforts in trying to become better. Recently they have started to work on the new Gymnasium building. Teachers and professors are good but they are very diverse. The teaching style of all the teachers differ and they might not be ok with everyone. So choose your class wisely. Overall the crowd is good but sometimes you might find some not so friendly people. I am not sure about the safety. However, most of the colleges in the bay area sucks with their security provisions.Ashutosh Dube

Most professors are very kind. The school as reopened for in-person learning. The food and library are open. Staff, students, and visitors will need to fill out a health screen to be on campus. (I'd say take a screenshot to easily show the green check) The construction in the middle of campus is done and the beautiful campus is opened up. There's now some construction towards the back where the "temporary" classrooms where. Stay safe, have fun, and let's go mission!Loni Pacheco

I like the school, and the professors are great. All of the professors I have taken have been kind. However, the staff- Araceli the manager from the mission college bookstore is extremely rude. She lacks customer service skills. She will yell at you in front of the entire store to the point where everyone is staring. I have had two negative encounters with her, and I am a very polite person. I have kept my calm even after being completely humiliated by her.Samantha Cruz

Mission College has one of the most supportive and enthusiastic professors. I enjoy coming in to all of my classes because they engage me into their lesson plans. Not only that but they make sure that all of their students are understanding the assignments and offer alternative support systems for them to succeed in the classroom. Overall, Mission College is doing an incredible job in getting students prepared towards their future goals.Diego Jimenez

I came out all the way from Hawaii for this program because I heard it was one of the best programs in the nation! Then being apart of the class sealed the deal for me! JP and his crew are the best instructors that will get you confident in your abilities to be able to respond effectively and efficient! They made me feel welcomed as if I was family! Truly the best program to start my career and they got me ready to respond and help save lives! Let’s goooo!!! Aloha!Z. Gonsalves

The Institute of Healthcare was an amazing experience to have obtained my EMT education. JP the director of the program real takes his teaching to heart and does everything he can to make sure his students succeed. Small class sizes that allow more Q&A opportunities to develop better skills and knowledge of the subject. Extremely satisfied with the program. I Passed my NREMT test and now am a certified EMT in California.Mitchell Coogan

Just passed my EMT cognitive exam! I’m so grateful for JP and his instructors for giving me the knowledge and preparation to be able to succeed in a career in EMS, they’re awesome. I highly recommend this course to anyone. I’m transitioning out of the military right now and couldn’t feel more confident. You will learn some great skills and meet some great people!Leonel Gomez

I started the program with Ms Perez as my lab instructor and ended with Ms Patrice. I'm older, laid off from a 25yr career and didn't know what to do with my life let alone where to start. Ms Perez and Ms Patrice made learning so easy, fun and amongst all, they made it interesting and made me feel excited to keep attending. The process at Unitek is easy to complete due to the communication level the staff has with their students. My career advisor, Ms Lisa is great! Ms Lisa Literally held my hand through the exiting process, kept in touch throughout my externship, made sure I was staying sane throughout the process of going to extern, working nights and taking care of my family. Walked me through my application process for a job, held my hand through the interview process, kept in touch throughout the whole process until I got an offer letter!!!! My experience with everyone at Unitek was great, but my experience with Ms Lisa is one that needs to be recognized!!!!Chris Fusi

I had a wonderful experience with Ms. Patrice my laboratory instructor and Ms. Perez. Both have mentored me & helped me become the MA I am today. Ms. Lisa Haynes in Career Services is a hard worker & goes to bat for her students. I received a job offer during my externship, that was too good to pass up as a new grad, thanks to her guidance. I recommend taking your MA in the day class as the PM class lacks structure & professionalism with one particular teacher…that is the only reason I left off a star. The school itself has a fully functioning lab for clinical experience, is safe, clean, holds dinners or gives treats for student morale and tuition is less than other schools in the Bay Area.Jennifer Wills

Instructors are professional with vast and extensive work experiences. They are genuinely caring and helpful for the sucess of the student and learning environment. Each department provided substantial support that made going through the program easier. Courtney and Rachel with Career Services gave us the confidence and tools to help make the transition from student life into the working world smooth.Gigi Tamayo

I had a great experience at this training center yesterday! This facility is friendly, has great equipment, small class sizes, and we were fortunate to have a very knowledgeable instructor, Doctor Sergio. We had 5 people in our class, and we were encouraged to practice our skills as many times as we needed. There was plenty of equipment, and the equipment was new and up-to-date. The prices are better than other centers, but they do not skimp on quality. They even had coffee, breakfast rolls and snacks for us! Great learning environment and comfortable facility!Lynn Nottingham

Wonderful school and very qualified instructors. I initially chose this school because it is close to my house, but I am very glad I signed up for their CNA program. Both the classroom and clinical instructors went above and beyond to make sure we were well prepared for the state exam, as well as the office staff, who made sure we had all the paperwork in order to receive our CNA license. I am also thinking about signing up for an RNA class and there is no other school I’d like to take it at.Alexandra Campeanu

I took an ACLS class at the North Hollywood location and loved it! The entire staff was very friendly and welcoming. Not only did I come out of the class learning a lot but I also had a lot of fun. The instructor, Sergio, was extremely educated and was extra patient with each and every one of us throughout the entire class. My favorite part of the whole experience was how we did scenarios and pretended we were running an actual code.Thank you for a great experience!Anna Bakalian

Chris came into our office and conducted an Adult, Childe, & Infant CPR and First Aid class. The class lasted about 3 1/2 hour and was very thorough. I learned a lot about what to do and how to react in different first aid situations. With the completion you earn a certificate that's good for two years, and some pride knowing that the skills you learned may one day save someone's life (could be my family & friends too. You never know). I highly recommend LifeSaver CPR's class to any individual or for an office.Louie Yao

I've been through training with LifeSaver for a few years now and I've always enjoyed the classes! Very informative, easy to follow and our instructors have been engaging and VERY knowledgeable. I took a class yesterday and I really liked the new Online/In-person format! Our instructor, Brianna, was great and really packed the hands on portion of the certification with tons of info and experience. I'm glad our school chooses to use LifeSaver!Amy Jewell

I have been in schools for 30 years and thankfully I’ve never had to use CPR. But, it is a requirement for all staff, soI have done my share of classes. This is one of the best. This company quickly pivoted to online during the pandemic and, frankly, we love the combination of online trainings coupled with on campus skills checks. We’ve used them for yearsI have every intention of continuing to do so. Highly recommend.Deanna Mayer

I am a working registered dental hygienist who graduated from Carrington College back when they were at their previous location relatively close by on San Ignacio. I can't speak for the program now since alot has probably changed in terms of administration, but our program director Sherry Heaney, department of hygiene staff, and supervising doctors were all great and provided us with excellent, rigorous education. We had a very thorough clinical and classroom education there at Carrington which allowed my graduating class to pretty much all go through the program and pass our National and regional boards for hygiene. The cost for the programs I will admit is a bit pricey as it is a private tech school, but they do have loan options. I just recently paid off my student loans after working part time for 3-4 years as a dental hygienist. Also keep in mind that the program was only about 1.5 years full-time vs the 2 years you would expect to go through from one of the renown lottery local community college programs at foothill, Diablo, etc. By all means if you are lucky enough to get into those programs go there as you will save a ton of money, but education-wise my education was on par with those schools. After we graduated I received many phone calls checking up on me to ask if I had been employed yet, so they do seem to check up on how we were doing after going through the program. If you are coming into this clinic as a patient, understand that this isn't a dental practice. Carrington makes nothing from having you come in for their essentially free treatment. They don't "prey" on people without dental insurance because Carrington receives no benefit from you coming into the department for treatment, and rather it is more of a service to you and the local community. That being said, you will be treated by STUDENTS and their only gain from you will be clinical experience. Treatment planning and the amount of time you spend in the clinic will also be ALOT longer than it would be if you were to go to a dental office. I'm talking about a few days of you coming in for appointments vs an hour at a dental office. To Nichole's review, since I can't directly respond to your review: I am unaware of how your periodontal health was before treatment but most likely you had gum disease. If you are having gum recession after treatment that you didn't expect, then I am afraid maybe you didn't have enough patient education. That is something that just happens if you have gum disease and receive treatment for it. Your gums recede because they are swollen initially and you already have bone loss around your teeth. Once they firm up they will naturally recede to match your bone levels. As a practitioner it triggers me when the patient blames the doctor or staff for the patient's own negligence even though as practitioners we have the heart to basically do charity work for them. It is sad that you feel entitled to free treatment and then blame your healthcare provider. Just my two cents here.Unsullied Roarrior

Hi my name is Jessylynn I am from Philippines, migrated here USA 2009, I know in myself that my passion in Dentistry will stop but by year 2016 I met former student of Carrington College, she’s working a Dental Hygienists now. Thanks to her because she encourage me to go to go back to school and try to inquire. The staffs in Carrington College are friendly even the janitor and security guard and front desk. I remember the first day doing my inquiring in this school, I met Troy he was my enrollment advisor! He’s so nice, funny and cool! I like him! I like how he help me and my friend to get this in the program. He extends his arm to help you for what you need to get in the program and take note I don’t have money, nor credit score or anything financial. It’s true that the private school is so PRICEY! I can’t blame or complain about it because it’s private school and you’ll graduate in 1.5 years not including pre req. Troy explained everything about it, how you’ll pay and how much you’ll pay. Honestly, I didn’t know what I’m doing but with the help of Carrington College staff I would say I owe them from what I became now because they helping me to make my dream come true even you don’t have money for now, it’s like get your degree and pay later! I am now in Term 2 in Dental Hygienist Program! Carrington College of Dental Hygiene Program Department’s environment is peaceful. The faculty are very friendly. This the place where you can learn many things. I honestly can say, their way of teaching is not intimidating, they work harder just to make sure their student doing a good job especially in the clinic, your practice skills (oh, a lot of COMPETENCY, which is to test your skills, if you failed then they’ll teach you until you get it) and lecture. I love how they focus on your hand skills, your ergonomic (protecting your back, I don’t even know that!) BASIC is life! They teach you not only to learn how to treat patient but they care also for you to love the job so you’ll not injure your overall health! Mrs. Clark is the one who welcomed us in this Program, she’s so gentle when she talk and I love her teaching in Radiology subject and not only her you’ll love. All the DH department staff are friendly and funny that what’s make me go to school everyday and excited to LEARN. They’re all knowledgeable, professional, and they will not stop failing you until you get the PERFECT skills, they’re not judgmental they’re always asking “DO YOU HAVE QUESTION?”. One of our Instructor said “MISTAKE IS A OPPORTUNITY”. I realized being perfection is not what make you GREAT! I don’t wanna brag everything but their teaching reached my beyond expectation. I can’t wait to finish my Program and start to work!Jesselyn Berganio

This particular location has some very wicked women working in positions they’re obviously not qualified to work in. If you’re a woman of African descent, they work so hard to keep you down and out of the programs, if the salary will start at a healthy rate. Yet they’re pretty rude and condescending to EVERYONE! They try to intimidate the students for having questions. They’re very unsupportive and unprofessional. They will gang up on you, knit pick with you, hold unnecessary bully like meetings with you, etc. these women can’t handle the responsibility that their position Carrie’s . They’re old as Medusa and have the audacity to mock an older student. It’s a shame that after all that women have been through overtime , these women believe that it’s their job to try and hold another woman back. I had a heart issue due to a medication I had taken while I was a student there. I was admitted into the hospital, and still managed to attend my class the following day from my hospital bed. These women verbally attacked me in private the first day I returned to campus. I was still weak from being ill, which caused me not to be able to properly defend myself. Fortunately, I was able to record the second attack—all because I inquired about what the protocols would be in the event that students became ill with covid. They wanted to meet with me again privately, the meeting took approximately 1 hour, yet my question was never answered. Instead they brought up all kinds of other silly things, while gazing at me like I was an experiment. There’s a lot more I have to say about this campus and it’s Surgical Technology Director, Lab instructor, and the Director of Student Services. They behaved like pure monkey’s.Tara Newton-Bailey

This is a really great way to obtain AHA BLS/ACLS/PALS certification. I liked that I could complete the online didactic module online at my own pace. I also liked that the time allotted to complete the live session was 1 hour (not too long) where you are not pressured to pass on the first try. In fact, they are right when they say it will take 3-4 attempts to pass, so do not be discouraged. One thing I would recommend (if possible) is for the students to review the video demos at home, so we can anticipate how to perform on the mannequins on the day of the test. I got a little confused with the "switching roles" at first, but after reviewing the demos a few times, I understood why I wasn't passing. Otherwise, I'll be back!Amy Pham

Took the BLS course and it was very time efficient. I would recommend this to anyone who is computer savvy & has some prior experience with CPR courses in general. If you have a tough time with computers, using one is how you pass the skills test – another person who was taking it had to ask for my help, & I genuinely don’t think they would have passed had I not shown them how to use the computer system. If you are unfamiliar with CPR, they never really walk you through an actual scenario that is skills-based, so I would recommend taking an in person course instead. I was renewing my BLS provider course, and this format was perfect for my needs.Katherine Ghyzel

Simple instructions before taking the in person class. Instructions also posted on walls. There was also an attendant present to help if needed. It was clean, and well stocked with gloves of all sizes and sanitizing wipes as well as alcohol and paper towels. Computer monitors were on a swivel to be able to be viewed from any angle easily. There was a step stool provided and a removable pad just as the video stated, to help perform high quality CPR. It was a great experience. Thank you!Catherine Chiprez

I would highly recommend this excellent, professional, well skilled trainers and great training organization for any of your safety training needs. The class room environment was excellent with comfortable desk space for all students providing a great learning experience. I took an eight hour CPR/First Aid Class and I will not go to any other training sites for my two year renewals. Our trainer was excellent. She was highly trained, very qualified to teach this class and made learning enjoyable. The eight hours went by very fast. I walked away feeling confident that I would be very capable of using my learned skills due to excellent training she gave for (Pediatric and Adult) First Aid / CPR.Dorie Ockenden

I love the effectiveness and efficiency of registering for a course as well as the options that the organization provides to become certified. You can hybrid it by taking online and attend some in-class learning. Or you can completely take the course in class. The in-class course made learning interactive, detailed and supportive for you to pass the exam at the end of the course. The instructors are very knowledge, professional and friendly. State of the art materials/equipment. I will continue to use Safety Training Seminars for my certifications. Thank you and wishing you guys all the best!L.Marie Watkins

This is by far the best! Trainers are always very helpful and very knowledgeable! This year with the pandemic it was. A bit different. Their online BLS was great! Super simple and easy to follow up! Also you go in by yourself and complete the hands on with a baby doll, and upper torso of an adult connected to a computer system. You follow the instructions on the screen, and while you preform CPR you are guided. It’s almost like playing a hands on video game. Strongly recommend if you are a self learner, work better alone, or beginner to online courses.pedro andrade

I took the BLS class here and Tyler was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and answered any and all questions. The facility was very clean and covered Covid protocols. I have been a nurse for 4 years and I actually learned something new in this class. An added bonus to it all was Tyler made the class an absolute blast with his sense of humor, I have never come home from a CPR class excited to talk about my experience. I would highly recommend this class. Thank you Tyler, I will definitely be seeing you in 2 years for my renewal!Destiny Quezada

Tyler was very knowledgeable and professional. His way of teaching was very clear. My boyfriend and I enjoyed his class immensely. He made it fun and we even stayed a little bit after class to chat about our experiences in the field. Sign-up process was easy and straight forward. If you have any question, they respond quickly. Price range, affordable. The site/location was clean, covid precautions in place. Plenty of sanitizers, disinfectant, sink to wash hands. Highly recommend for BLS, Heartsaver Firstaid/CPR/AED.Sarah Estandarte

It was fun attending the BLS class with Tyler. The company is so organized. I made a mistake of scheduling a wrong class but luckily Tyler called me to verify and supported me on rescheduling for the right class. The class went well and fast because Tyler always on point. It's a great refresher for healthcare and non-healthcare individuals. I am glad that I chose to get my BLS from First Support CPR and First Aid Training.Kim M

I have had the opportunity to train online with many entities in another field in my former career. This was my first time using this company to help me with training and certification. I found the site to be extremely user friendly, there was staff available at any moment when and if you need them, and the accent of the gentleman who narrated the training was soothing. I especially liked the quizzes that are strategically placed throughout the training session. It helps with the retention of what you are learning. I was able to get myself and five (5) of my Team Members registered and into the system in minutes. I did have to call the number on the site a few times as I registered and had other questions, and the phone was answered every time! And the Lady was incredibly nice and professional. I will use this training site exclusively.Matt P

I took the online 8 hour Hazwoper refresher course. The material was relevant and easy to follow. I like the fact that there is a quiz after each section to verify what was learned. Also, its easy to scroll back just in case something was missed. The only issue I had was the audible was very low and at times difficult to understand. I did have my speaker volume up to 100% but it did not make a difference.Anthony Ridente

I recently took the RCRA/DOT Hazmat Course. I thought the course was excellent. It would be nice if we could download the slides as reference. I intend to take this course on an annual basis. one question: Can apply the training credit hours to my Massachusetts Certified Wastewater Operator's License? Please let me know. Great course over allDavid Gillis

I just took a CPR class here and it was amazing. The instructor Jeff was very helpful, knowledgeable, and respectful. I've taken CPR classes before where it drags on and you begin to forget information because it becomes dull and monotonous, but he made the class very entertaining and interactive. He is a great teacher and I would recommend him to anyone looking to take a CPR class. From the moment I walked through the door, I felt like I was in a comfortable environment as well. I was unable to make the scheduled class, so he set up a personal class for me as well. He is also a very friendly person and great to simply have a conversation with. As I stated above, he is an amazing instructor and you should take his class if you are need CPR certification!Stephanie Suarez

My company has used Patterson Enterprises a few times now. Some at his location, and once Mr. Patterson came to our place of work for a group training. That flexibility is very valuable, as it saved several hours of driving and coordination when you add up how many people we had trained. Mr. Patterson was able to focus on topics that our work group was more likely to encounter in the work place, making the training more meaningful and less wasteful. Mr. Patterson has a ton of experience, he is always helpful and easy to reach, and prices are reasonable. Definitely would recommend, and we will continue to use his services.Jennifer Felker

It has been our pleasure to work with Jeff Patterson for the past three years in certifying the entire staff of our youth summer camps. He is so very professional, courteous, knowledgeable, flexible and wants his students to succeed! His courses are the most fun of any CPR courses I've ever attended! I would give more than a five stars rating for his fantastic service!Heather Jenkins

My wife and I live in Oakland and came in today with our employee for an 8 hour CPR, AED, and first aid class. We initially wanted to renew our certification at a married couple's house who offer it in Alameda (much closer to us) – this was where we originally received our certification at. Fortunately they were full and we got to do the Adams Safety Training experience! Training here at AST has been fun, informative, and engaging. Josh was our instructor. His energetic attitude made for a more pleasant time despite the long 8 hour timeframe. Many great questions were asked and Josh knew his stuff. The hands-on with the adult, child, and infant dummies was great as well!Ed Eddison

Marlene was the best and keeps you entertained for the 8 hours. The funny thing is I was the first person in the class and the first thing I said was Marlene right. I was like I read the reviews on lol she was good or bad I was like good lol people said you kept it fun and entertaining for the whole time and she did. I loved the class and learned so much. Lol she’s great and awesome with great energy. I wish I wasn’t already trained in cpr because I definitely would’ve didn’t the cpr class too! I highly recommend her she is just so coolTamara Brelland

Instructor Marlene is such a warm hearted, sincere, empathetic person you would never think you would encounter in a class setting. She is super passionate teaching and my mood lighten up that I enjoyed her teaching style. I will be back in two years and I recommend for everyone to take her EMSA nutrition class, you won’t regret it. Thank you so much for teaching us above and beyond in this class. You are very welcoming and your excitement for teaching is high quality and excelling in the direction of opening your child care home.Emily Dominguez

I learned about BATA when I was doordashing one day and i’m so glad I did because I love it! I highly recommend it to anyone looking to become an EMT or just looking for experience. The VP of BATA, Nicky, is awesome and very understanding! My instructors Paul Bieber and Steve Albright are the best instructors I could’ve asked for. They make such a great learning environment and have a fun way of teaching. Another great thing about BATA is that you get so much hands on experience, meet tons of cool people/instructors and learn new skills such as how to backboard, use spider straps, how to use a gurney, etc. and also get to go on ride alongs with different ambulance companies. My first ride along was with Dominic LaMonica and Kyle Sylvia, who are two Westmed EMTs. I’m so appreciative of them and how they taught and treated me during my ride along. It was such an exciting experience and they made sure I was comfortable and that I was included the whole time. Im so grateful for Bay area training academy and all i’ve learned; I will always recommend it to anyone looking to go into EMS.Angie Espinoza

I did the 3 week course and had Scott as my instructor. The program was definitely intense and filled with lots of information. However, Scott converted the dense lecture material into simpler terms. He would always include funny, interesting anecdotes that enhanced my learning experience. He was very supportive of everyone in the class and always answered my questions thoroughly. I also want to thank my skills instructors (Dakota, Frank, Ben, Scotty, and Tank) for being so helpful throughout the course. They made sure that we practiced the EMT skills numerous times and were really helpful as well. Although this class was extremely fast paced, I wouldn’t choose any other program. It is very rewarding and I definitely feel equipped to work as an EMT.Michelle Doan

The absolute best. Did the 3 week EMT course and was extremely worried coming into the first day. Immediately felt comfortable after the first interaction. Never knew that 12 hours could go by that quickly. Scott is a well-versed instructor and made the course by far the most entertaining and exciting experience one could possibly have. All of the 6 Skills instructors I interacted with also some of the best teachers one could have. If you are ever on the edge of signing up for any of their EMT courses, go for it. I can say with full confidence that you will be blown away by the level of skill and instruction.Lucas L

I took Project Heartbeat’s 5 week EMT course last month. It was amazing! I can say that this was probably the most fulfilling academic experience I’ve had. As opposed to the standard community college EMT course, this program is very fast paced. I felt pretty conflicted between the two options at first. However, having completed the course, I’m confident this is the better option. Because of the fast paced learning and the teaching style, information is understood and retained, which creates an excellent medical provider. Instructors were all amazing. Instructors had a great, robust and diverse range of experiences in EMS and military. Instructors did a great job of explaining and preparing you for the actual realities of EMS. Staff all want to create competent EMT’s. There was never a time I didn’t feel like I had someone knowledgeable to ask questions. Plenty of hands-on time in addition to lectures, which is so important for EMT. Lots and lots of practice is available, with many volunteers and instructors offering to come in on their own time to provide extra practice. For our particular class they even allowed some of us to bring equipment home to practice with. Can’t thank the whole staff and all the volunteers enough. Great program, worth every cent. Sign up! Go in with a good attitude, work hard and knock out this semester course in 5 weeks! You won’t regret it when you finish.Connor D

I needed to get a BLS recertification ASAP and was really lucky to find Project Heartbeat. The class was $40 and then $20 for the book, which is actually the cheapest one I was able to find. The class was very small (there were 2 of us) which I prefer because I was able to receive a more personalized class. My instructor (Clarence) was very straightforward and made sure he helped us understand the material before moving on. He was open to questions and was very approachable. During the class, we did a couple exercises/scenarios with adults, children, and infants. The videos and lectures were easy to understand and follow. Overall, the class was very fun and will definitely come back for other classes and definitely for my recerts! (Also another plus is they have coffee/tea and snacks!)Christina Lee

I recently took the 5-week EMT program at Project Heartbeat and I had a great experience. Steve, Eric, Brian and everyone else who came through to help our class were amazing! Thank you for everything! They worked together to ensure that we all learned what it means to be EMTs and how to be a good one. All of them take their time to help you if you have any questions or are stuck on something and will do everything they can to make you good providers. The instructors will push you to be independent and will hold you accountable, but be confident and everything will work out. The 5-week program is fast-paced and definitely difficult with all of the new information, but in the end (if you put in the effort and trust them) the process will be rewarding.Hannah

I would absolutely recommend Chris and his courses to anyone wanting an interactive and truly useful class on infant CPR and choking. I arranged a course for my infant's caretakers (grandparents and babysitters) and everyone was really impressed by how friendly, down to earth, and approachable Chris is. And it's so helpful that he can come to your home/your place of choice. He takes the time to answer all questions, and walks you through all practical steps around safety — from prevention to what to do, step-by-step, if an emergency should occur. He also brought very helpful CPR "dolls" to help us practice the technique. I felt way more confident after the class that I would know what to do in the event of an emergency. Forget the Red Cross classes, which are stilted and not that useful, in my opinion. If you want to take a truly useful, fun (yes, fun!), and hands-on class, look no further.Alyssa Cheung

This was a great course! We had signed up for a CPR course from another company for our summer camp counselors and that company canceled last minute In Home CPR picked up the ball and set up a CPR certification for 11 people within less than 7 days! Chris worked over the holiday weekend to help us set it up and the event was a success. As to the quality of the course, it was thorough, easy to understand and adhered to every CPR and First Aid guideline that I have learned. I'm very happy with the professional results we received from In Home CPR!Judi Martin

In Home CPR has provided our organization with 4 CPR classes and we have 4 more in the books! Chris, Lisa, Jasmine, and team have been incredibly responsive in registering staff, making changes in enrollments, accommodating and wonderful instructors! I've only heard great things from our participants. THANK YOU In Home CPR! You made this much needed training seamless, effective and fun! I couldn't recommend them enough!Claire Hatamiya

A 5 star review of Heart Start CPR! Fifth time recert here-ACLS and BLS. I had Sig Jacobson as the instructor. He was fantastic! Really helped break down the information, made everyone feel welcome and was eager to teach, explain and encourage! Exactly what you want in an ACLS/BLS class that can be intimidating! Another amazing class with Heart Start! Again, I'll be back in two years. Logistically, easy to schedule online, plenty of parking and class started on time and ended in a timely fashion! Again, thanks Heart Start and Sig!!!Julia DeRenzi

The center provided conducive learning environment for us students. Our instructor Sig also encouraged interactive discussion of relevant concepts, clinical experiences and changes to the algorithm. I had to reschedule my class twice due to unavoidable circumstances and their front desk team represented by Lisa was very responsive and helpful in rescheduling my class. The center also follows strict COVID 19 safety protocols and cleaning/sanitizing the equipments we used during training. Thank you so much!Nessa Martin

I've gone though Heart Start CPR for all my renewals. I will come back next year. I prefer in class over online & they are the reason why! They are thorough, make the scenarios realistic & fun. I feel more confident in my skills because I used their trainings & their easy to remember algorithms & sheets. Our instructor, John, was very knowledgeable & interactive.T JB

Bradford College of Nursing is the best school. Edwin, Erica and Mrs Marie are the best. They are very understanding, caring, and helpful. I went for medical assisting and now I am certified and working in the medical field, all thanks to Edwin, Erica and Mrs Marie . They treated me as if I was family. They always understands and listens to me, if I had problems with my class schedule they will work with me. If I had 100 questions and I asked Mrs Marie she always answered all my questions. If I did not understand the work Mrs Marie sat down with me and explained over all the work. She made sure I always understand the work. Bradford College is the best school. I recommend this school for anyone. You would not regret the decision you make of going to Bradford College of Nursing. Mrs Marie is the best. Thank you Mrs Marie, Edwin and Erica. I have no regrets going to Bradford College of Nursing. Edwin, Erica and Mrs Marie May god bless you all and please continue doing an excellent job. Thank you for having me at Bradford College . Mrs. Marie is the best instructor anyone can ask for. She always put a smile on my face through difficult times and made the class work so easy.Reshma Naidu

I was more than prepared to take my state exam with ARC all because of Erica and Milva. Bradford has one of the cheapest and shortest CNA program in the 209, which is why I was drawn to the school in the first place. I knew I got my monies worth after completing the program and seeing how much effort the instructors put in to ensuring that their students pass their state exams. Although my group was only able to go to clinicals for one weekend because of the pandemic, we were given more than enough time to practice skills at their Simulation Labs. Their Sim Labs are complete with all the supplies, including beds and mannequins, that are used on the state exam and on actual LTC facilities. I appreciated how flexible they were with payments by offering weekly or biweekly payments, instead of having to pay in full before starting the program like other schools. I was also able to get my CPR certification through the school for an additional $60. Overall, I’m more than pleased with my experience and I now understand why many reviewers raved about the school.Zarah Abenes

I just completed the CNA program the school offers and, I must say it was worth every penny and time. The course was 6 weeks and went by extremely fast. The curriculum is very easy to process. I'm so happy I decided to take the course at the time I did. The instructor Milva is Awesome. She has so much knowledge and you can learn so much from her. The Administrative team Edwin and Erica are great too. The engery and passion the two display to help you be successful to pass your State Exam is phenomenal. They treat you like family and care about your success. I highly recommend to all who wish to enter the Medical field. This is the school to choose. I am also looking forward to completing the EKG program to continue to build my skill set. Thank You Bradford College of Nursing. You guys are Awesome. Continue to do what you do.Chanaya Watson

I always go to Safety Training Seminars to renew my BLS cpr card. This was my first time taking this class with the skills portion done at a separate testing center (no instructor- just a computer along with an adult and infant CPR manikins). I was alone, but there was another room in there just in case , I’m guessing for a second person with the same appointment time. Everything was fine- the only thing I couldn’t figure out was if my computer was supposed to have any sound. I tried to adjust the volume on the computer and the videos but it didn’t work. It was hard to focus on doing both- reading the instructions and doing compressions at the same time. The facility was clean and allowed me to work at my own pace (within my appt time frame). It did get a bit hot in there, especially after doing some cpr practice, but I’m not sure if I was allowed to touch the thermostat? I did turn the fan on for some ventilation instead. Would love to do my CPR renewals like this every time !Elena B

It was very quick and easy, i needed to renew my certification before my Emt schooling. I was able to make and appointment for the next day, I did the little online course, and then went in person and did the test all by myself. It a little strange having no instructor but it was easy and clear instructions from the computer. In the end it was simple and easy and got my cert right away!!Spenser Soares

Had to renew my bls card for work or I was going to get suspended. Safety training seminars had availability the following day. I got the material online completed the online portion and in the pm I went to the hands on training. Everything is so easy and fast, the technology they use is awesome, I really recommend taking and renewing bls certifications with safety training seminarsAntonio Molina
