The class is fast paced, but covers everything necessary to leave you feeling confident in yourself as a BLS provider.

What a great experience! I work for a major hospital chain and keeping my Basic Lifesaving…read morecertification up to date comes with the territory. Under normal circunstances, I would take the course, free of charge, at work, but Covid has taken this training online. I tried to hunker down and get this done, but I am obviously not a candidate for online life saving, because 1) I can't save a life on a computer and 2) I don't want to/cannot spend a crazy amount of time in front of a screen. It simply does not compute. I met Derek Walters when he was visiting a friend who was a patient in the hospital where I work. I learned he was an RN and he owned this company. He gave me his card, I tucked it away because I knew I was going to need it. I registered and paid for the class online, $60. At this particular class, there was only one other attendee, another health care professional. The facility is clean and open, with plenty of room to move freely. Derek is engaging, funny and light. He explained in detail all that is required, to pass the test and obtain certification. He used real life examples to get the lessons across.. His manequins were top of the line, easy to use for practice and demonstration. Derek made this class super fun. I can see he offers this service because of his love for the profession and his strong desire to give back to the community. I will not hesitate to come back in 2 years to recertify and I will tell everyone I know to skip the computer training. The Lasting Compressionss course is well worth the cost, even wthen facility training is free. AND...what a GREAT name, right?

After successfully registering, they sent me a calendar invite which was helpful as well as a reminder a day or two before your actual class. The CSRE suite with its classroom is located on the second floor of the brick building (which had lots of parking space). The facility and equipment were clean. The instructions especially Kristen were very friendly and knowledgable!! I felt the pacing was appropriate and instructions/communication was clear. I was in and out within the estimated course time. Bathrooms and water fountains available throughout the building. I honestly have no complaints and would highly recommend!

I donate blood every time I am eligible, over 4 gallons in the past 5 years. I appreciate the…read moreprofessional service, friendly receptionist and ambassador when you arrive. They assist you in preparing for the donation. The phlebotomist is prompt with their professional and caring treatment of the client (donor). Sometimes they fall behind, especially during peak hours, but by enlarge they are timely, and the treats are welcomed always. My one recommendation is to bring back the refrigerated bottled water. The fountain at the rear of the donation floor is not convenient to those that sit in the lounging area near the food court, they do have juice boxes in the refrigerator but if you are a diabetic, water is the preferred drink, cold water is better that room temperature from the pour down fountain. Word of advice, come prepared, complete the self-questionnaire, Rapid Pass, get the short cut on-line application, this contains your donation history, Donor Number (bar-code) and that will facilitate the administrative signing in process.
