7 Best Emt Programs In Toledo, OH (2022 Updated)

Honestly, should have listened to everyone discrediting this school. Cheaper ain't better. This school has stressed me out and I've only been attending for one semester. They keep changing my aid amount, will not reimburse my refund and all together have made my college experience a nightmare in hell especially with me working full-time. It always something new going on with my financial information for the following semester and new requirements that were completed prior to me attending resurfacing. Who has the time to keep re-ensuring that they're getting the money they already previously accepted? It doesn't matter how early you send your FAFSA in, they will find a way to have it reprocessed so late that you won't recieve the amount you already accepted. Honestly, I want to withdraw this semester but my grades are so high it would be no point.Jazmyliena Martin

Very poor experience, people don't care about the disabled students, they had charged me over $1k for not helping me get into my classes and they've abandoned me in 2010. One star for absolute failure. Edit: 9/14/2022 this so-called trio program from Owens community college isn't helpful not resourceful of how am I supposed to go to college, they sign me up late not knowing I'm missing out on my assignments and these advisors in the school are lazy and rude like they don't care for the disabled students such as myself. This is still an one star. Don't go to Owens community college if you're disabled like I am. They're ruining my life against my willMr. Martell Sincere

Attended Owens and completed an Associates degree in 2001. Returned to a local area 4 year college to complete a Bachelor of Science. Due to the high cost and mediocre experience. I chose to take as many transfer classes as possible at Owens. A full time semester was a fraction of a 4 year college semester. Pretty rigorous course material and most importantly, courses are well structured, you could actually work ahead following the syllabus. Students and staff are pleasant. Have my 4 year degree, and returning to Owens for certificate programs to fill in the gaps from said 4 year college curriculum.Brent A.

If I could leave a zero star that’d be cool. I called to get basic information. Wanted to know transferable credits of and ADN degree to BSN degree. Was told o needed to “Speak English” (mind you I’m as English and American as it gets) I asked what he meant by to speak English and he said he didn’t understand was an ADN or BSN is. There’s more polite ways to ask about something you don’t understand than to straight up tell someone “I need you to speak English for me” like sir! I need you to speak more professionally for me. Disgusted. Btw don’t press “2” option or you’ll probably be talked to like a dog too.Kyra Yates

I’m currently an attending undergrad since 2019. I’ve only had one major issue and that was my academic advisor originally slotting 18 credit hours my first semester. But I got a new academic advisor and I’ve had no other issues. All of my professors have been nice even if they were strict with teaching methods. I could even say I’d miss a few of them cause they made classes with them super fun. Their Covid-19 response was also great and their testing centers were quick and easy to attend. The campus is also really nice in the spring/summer when it’s not too hot.C. H.

As community members, we attend some of the music programs. All of the free music programs come with a 100% money-back guarantee if you don't like them. Tastes in music vary and there are different performances. Theater programs usually have a charge, comparable to some community theaters and high school theater productions. Tastes again vary and it is hard to put Star labels on these genres of offering. Facilities are functional. During COVID, masks required. Parking usually adequate.Gary Fox

Denise, I added to this review, please read if you see this. I graduated from Mercy a few years ago. It was one of the worst experiences I've ever gone through. I did graduate and got what I went there for but students are repeatedly disrespected by teachers and the clinical instructors. The skills lab was a joke. I'd go in there to ask questions and I was told several times to find a book and look up the answer instead of doing their jobs that they are paid for and help a student with their knowledge. If I couldn't find the answer, they'd hand me another book to look at while they continued to have conversations with their co-workers. Most clinical instructors were mean and made you feel stupid, even in front of patient's. I may have a RN after my name but I regret going to this school. I'll never forget some of the cruel things several teachers have said to me and how unhelpful and unsupportive the staff was. After I graduated, several of the teachers got fired and I wasn't surprised. I don't recommend going to this school. Nursing school is hard enough and this school isn't worth the added stress. EDIT: Hi Denise, not sure if you will see this, I appreciate your response. I just want to add that the teachers, clinical instructors, and staff, need to realize people are not only students but also paying customers. I feel Mercy lacks in customer service when it comes to students. This surprises me since having good customer service skills is an important aspect in nursing for patient satisfaction. I agree with a previous review that stated, " students are treated like burdens." I never once heard words of encouragement from the staff at Mercy. A lot of negative and unkind remarks. I also got more help from the students working in the skills lab than the nurses who worked in the lab. I feel the staff at Mercy needs to be educated on the importance of customer service skills. If there are multiple student complaints about an educator, take it seriously. When I was there, one of your clinical instructors actually got me to cry in front several students and hospital staff. I felt I had no one to report this to, worried staff would turn against me.Google User

Don't be discouraged by the 1 star posters. My daughter attended Mercy College and we couldn't be happier. The staff is great. The people that had trouble in school had several resources to help them do better. My daughter constantly scheduled tutoring sessions. Mercy prepares the student, but the student has to be prepared for the challenge of nursing school. Remember nurses have human lives they are taking care of. Does anyone want someone getting low grades to be their nurse? I don't. No school prepares their student for the NCLEX (test to become a registered nurse) better than Mercy. We were so happy with Mercy that our son is now attending Mercy this fall (BSN program). Great school!Dee M

My experience at Mercy was more like a nightmare. The students are treated like burdens, instead of the paying consumers they are. There is a huge lack of communication between instructors and lab staff, which leaves students unsure and ultimately unsuccessful. Educators are supposed to give students the tools they need to become successful, this is not what I received during my time at Mercy. You can study hard, ace exams, and practice in the lab everyday, however one poorly proctored lab check off can fail you for a whole semester, and if you try to appeal, it is just your word against theirs. I do not recommend Mercy if you hope to graduate , and get that RN behind your name.Miss Me

This place has alot of opportunities…. It may be a Community College but that doesn't mean anything. My attendence here has brung me along way academically. I enjoy my time here and I value my education. Some classes may be hard… But Owens has plenty of tutors to help you succeed.Jaye Legacy

Clean place, the seating in the theater is top notch. Plenty of room to move about, this is what I noticed right away. There isn't a bad seat in there.Lauren Worthington

Below is a post from our current Toledo supervisor: I don’t know how far word has traveled yet, but I am now the head supervisor at Community EMS Toledo division, when I started at community (against all the rumors I had heard before I accepted the job), I then quickly realized after I started everyone was right, and that I was going to probably quit in very short time, but I didn’t, I stayed, and then community did something right, they promoted my supervisor, who actually turned the tide of the very poor direction that we were heading in, and changed things substantially in a rather short amount of time, which gave me a little faith to stay, he since sadly had to take a leave of absence, which subsequently I was promoted. I have taken the mentality that Community is going to be one of the best Private EMS companies out there to work for, and I take care of my people, my first concern is always and will always be the people who are the back bone of the company, I know all to well that it is my crew members that make a company run, I don’t need supervisors if I don’t have ambulances, I don’t need a billing department if there are no runs to bill. We have so many good people, with more coming on everyday, I heard a rumbling of well community only has brand new people out of school, well yea sure I have a ton of new people, you have to start somewhere, why not with me, I’ll take new people, and then I’ll make them into something that I’m ok with sending off to where ever the next EMS career takes them. Community only takes people who got fired from another agency, sure do, as my supervisor and mentor said to me, we have to look at why they were fired, did the previous company fail them, were they not given the tools necessary to succeed for that company, sometimes people go through a rough spot and have an unfortunate set of problems, were they askedPatti Simon

This place is a joke. They were 2 hours late and treated my aunt like a sack of potatoes and we personally watched them REUSE the sheets and blankets used for her on another patient. So, as far as we know, our immunocompromised Aunt was given the dirty blankets of another sick person. This is a disgusting business practice. The ambulance driver told us that we had to follow them, and we could not ride with her to the doctors office, then drove incredibly dangerously, weaving in an out of traffic and blew 2 red lights. I wouldnt recommend this company for my worst enemy.Jay Mitchel

This is no longer Community Ems, it is Superior Ambulance Service, which is truly a great company to work for, and a great company to be care for by.Keith Hudson

called because someone was throwing up, pale, and passing out.. the EMS waited at the corner till the police showed up. I tried to wave to them to get them to actualy come to the house and they just sat and waited. would of been faster to just drive him to the hospital myself and probably cheaper.Nina Tiels
