Dont do it if you are not sure you want to do this! It will suck you in, chew you up, and spit you out but you will be transformed into a critical thinking, composed, accomplished medical professional beyond prepared for what the job will throw at you. Are you a straight A student? Well, congratulations! Leave that ego at the door. This is a whole different ballgame now and you might have to get used to the Bs and Cs. But Saddleback will turn you into an incredible nurse. The instructors really know their stuff. There is AMPLE support, almost too much in fact! There will be a lot of laughter, a lot of tears, and a lot of excitement. You will find lifelong friends, and you will mess up along the way, usually right at the moment that you think you are starting to get it. This is a full time commitment. Don't underestimate it! But if you can get in, and get through, you will feel incredibly proud of your achievements and ready to take on the role. Best of luck! Work hard and you can do it!

Long overdue but this is where I last renewed my CPR certification and it was awesome. Teresa made…read morethe learning process personal and informative. Thankfully it wasn't boring and dry for 4-5 hours; because when doing a recert, it's really not needed unless you have issue with certain changes.... or there are lessons that you are having trouble with. In that case she is more than happy to go thru those things with you to ensure you really know the material. I would definitely opt to go this route again instead of a traditional long classroom approach the next time I need to recertify. Making an appointment is very easy on the website and communicating with Teresa is a breeze. Price is about right and if you have the book great but if not speak with her about it because she generally has loaners that you can use. Good spot to learn!!

The equipment wasn't clean and wasn't ready to go for my skills test appointment. The bag was missing the mask! I couldn't find the replacement until I looked under the manikins table and in one of the drawers. That wasted time. There should have been a spare set ready to go for my skills test upon check-in on the table. It was extremely hot in the room as well! There was no air conditioning in the room on a hot 90 degree day. I was literally dripping sweat doing the simulations until I realized there was a portable air conditioner. I did turn on the portable unit. It took awhile to cool down the room. Again, wasting time. The proctor had to intervene a few times because the internet connection was poor! It lost connectivity a couple of times and the connection was spotty. The person was very helpful but hard to understand. The instructions that were given were vague. On a positive note, the online portion was "excellent"! The course work was very convenient, easy to follow, and the videos were great! I loved doing the online modules prior and than doing the skills test from 4:00PM to 5:00PM. This saved a lot of time. I appreciate this option. My only recommendation is for the skills test on exam day to be ready to go for the scheduled appointment and better organized with complete kits to perform the skills tests. Also, a more reliable internet connection. Thank you for offering the Hybrid class! I would definitely consider testing this option again because my work schedule and the convenience, but with the hope that it would be more organized. I am certified for the next 2-years, so we are good. Thank you again. Have a great week!

Kristine is awesome, genuine, and great at what she does. (5 stars)…read more She instructed the class very well and took into consideration everyone's needs and comfort zones. I was there with one other person for the class. I had a great experience and I feel confident with the instruction I received. The training was concise (more than 2 hours I didn't really keep track of time), a lot shorter than what I heard about CPR classes (5 hours). We also connected on a deeper level because we shared stories about our medical past. We are all survivors of something. The class was started on time because she wanted to respect our effort of showing up on time on a Sunday. Much appreciated. Side note to you know who you are: Don't go complaining to the receptionist who pics up the phone that you arrived at 9:50 am for the 10 o' clock class and the place was locked and no one let you in. Yes it was locked but I was sitting outside on the bench and walked towards the building at 9:48, I was talking to another attendee for at least 5 min before we were let in. We didn't even start until 10:05 because Kristine was waiting for any "stragglers." You were not there at 9:50, unless you have the invisibility cloak and decided not to step in when the door was opened. Don't lie, own up to your .... No one respects people like you. Location was a little confusing (took class same day as review), however it does have a GIANT 1524 on it so you can't miss that. It is the Spectrum building with the Dental Laboratories on the front. And NO the reception desk is not associated with Safety First CPR. Unless you're the scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz, who doesn't have a brain, you can figure out that the building does not belong to them and they lease a room. I was texted the address by the receptionist and didn't receive any other correspondence. I was supposed to receive an invoice and notification but that never happened. So I decided what the heck and showed up anyways. Worked out in the end. (-1 star for the receptionist)

The instructor got everyone involved engaged and explained every questions everyone had. I was surprised with so much information being taught, the instructor broken the training into smaller segments and made it easy to understand. They have the latest and best manikins with light indicators to help you know how much pressure you need to push in order to perform the correct chest compression. From performing CPR on an adult, child and small infants. I now know what to do and the correct way to do it in case of an emergency. Not only knowing how to help others but also how to protecting yourself while helping. I highly recommend Safety First CPR for anyone that needs training in CPR, First Aid and AED certification!

The online part needs to be done first before skills test. If you select that you're confident/an expert in cpr then you'll go through the online modules quicker. For the in-person skills test, you'll have to enter door code on left hand side if you come before 9am. Parking validation is at the front desk. You will be alone with two dummies (that makes three dummies, jk). Unlimited tries to pass the skills test but trust me you'll want to pass it the first time. Whatta workout! Overall, very smooth and quick process.
