Outstanding CPR Training - Professional, Engaging, and Life-Changing!…read more I had an amazing experience with this CPR training! Jannell was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and made the class engaging and easy to follow. The hands-on practice and real-life scenario gave me so much more confidence. Jannell demonstrates passion in teaching life-saving skills the correct way. Everything was well-organized, on time, and super informative. Whether you're taking CPR for the first time or as a refresher, this is the place to do it. Absolutely worth every minute. Five stars all the way! Thank you Jannell for being such an amazing instructor.

She has such a calm demeanor and has over 12 years experience in the field so she is very knowledgeable. She did not hover over me while doing my return demonstrations which gave me confidence and autonomy. Its scary sticking a needle in someone, but she made me feel good about it. I feel like I learned a lot and feel great going out in to the work to perform blood withdrawal and IV insertion on my patients. I HIGHLY recommend this course to anyone in the medical profession. She also teaches many other classes such as wound care certification and LVN to RN at Holy Names so she knows her stuff!

I would've done 1 star but I don't want to be too rude. My experience at VNS was…read morevery...interesting. Miss Josie thinks highly of herself, which is fine but she doesn't need to remind everyone that she is #1 every single day. She has no problem calling someone stupid or how she likes to say "no coconut meat" or "mulala". She had no shame on calling one of the other students "Mulala" and had no shame on doubting one of the students. She continually would say "I think ____ quit" or "I think ____ isn't going to make it as a CNA" as a teacher it is not your job to doubt a student but to encourage them. Also she can't hear a majority of the time which was quite annoying and $1600+ for the program is too much in my opinion, I did the M-F AM class, it was TORTURE. Be prepared to sit in a small room listening to Miss Josie talk on and on and on, about things that shouldn't even be mentioned in a class, AND about very personal things. The scrubs and handbook and fingerprints not being part of the $1600 price is ridiculous. $1600 is already so much and she's too cheap to include the other important necessities!? We also didn't get a graduation, which is ridiculous, just because we were are small class doesn't make us any less deserving of a graduation, she told us we'd take the final exam and have a graduation just for her to offer us a graduation the next day (after the final exam) which is crazy, we don't have free time we have jobs and school and things we need to do, it could've been planned better. Clinicals was actually pretty great, it was refreshing to not be in a lecture for 8 hours a day. I would think twice before choosing this school, I only chose it because it was closest to me, but I'd definitely choose another school if I could start over. Please choose a school that will pay for you state exams, scrubs, handbook, etc. also it's a bit weird how this school is "SO Great" and "Ms Josie is #1" when there's only 11 google reviews and only 6 yelp reviews when this school has been open since the 90's...makes you really wonder.....let's see how long this post lasts. Good luck to everyone attempting.

I went to this CNA school while my friend went to another one so we were able to compare which is…read morebetter. Hands down, this CNA school is THE ONE. The other schools rushed their students too much and didn't guide them that well with the process of getting licensed. Vallejo Nursing School is the complete opposite. Josie is very knowledgeable and will teach you all the things you need to know to be licensed and if you are struggling, she's very patient and passionate in helping you. She provides nourishments to keep our brain active because of the long hours and keeps us entertained along the way during clinicals. She makes all of us feel like a family and all of us were very comfortable with each other considering the amount of days of only getting to know each other. It's as if the place is a safe place to be. And I was there during the peak of the pandemic. Now comes for the hard part, review week and the state exam. I have test anxiety and this was my first actual "state" exam so I was so nervous and was counting down the days to get it over with. Josie along with her staff are great support system and will NEVER make you feel alone. I sometimes get off track and lost but they're so patient and will guide you UNTIL YOU GET THAT LICENSE. THEY CARE SO MUCH. If you're considering becoming a CNA and is looking for a good school, this is it!

I would recommend this class 100% & will keep going back to this location! The owner is super…read morepatient and friendly. He works very efficiently & is going to help you get your certificate in a span of 2-3 hours & quite literally emails you the certificate after the test you take at the end of the class. He goes over the course as a whole and makes it impossible for you to fail the test. He also has a custom t-shirt shop in the same establishment and there was some work I recognized, 10/10 stars if I could give them. His shop is very clean and he practices good hygiene during courses with hand sanitizer and spray bottles of alcohol to clean supplies.

Bait and switch scam -- owner lied to me to try to get me to pay more money…read more I signed up for this course a year ago. Due to personal tragedy, I was unable to complete the course at the time. I emailed them a few weeks ago and they said I could reschedule for a reschedule fee of $150. A but steep, that's half the cost of the class, but awesome! It's been a year so I appreciated that. I paid the fee and did the class. As I waited to collect my card, the owner told me I owed $180. He said because it's been a year I had to pay full price, despite what he said in his email reply to me. I explained that I'd have understood if he'd originally told me it's been too long and the course couldn't be rescheduled, but that he should honor what he said in his email since he only brought up the extra charge right after I finished the course. He got defensive, said he's the boss, and he makes the rules. He got $330 for free from me a year ago, $150 now, and that apparently wasn't enough for him. His rules are apparently to go back on his word and pressure you to pay more money after wasting a bunch of your time. He started yelling so I left. That was an incredibly scummy thing to do to someone. Don't go here.

The learning environment was immaculate, safe, and very well-organized, which made it even easier to focus and fully participate.

By the end of the session, I felt confident in my ability to step in and potentially save a life if needed.
