This is my go-to place for CPR class and renewal. Informative, friendly, and chill staff. I come here every two years. Easy to sign up for class. You get your CPR Card via email on the same day. They used to allow parking in the building structure, in the garage, but I think they stopped that. Regardless, there's usually parking in the streets. read more

I just finished BLS and Christian was my instructor. What an EXCELLENT instructor! This is my third time for recertification at 912 Medical Education and Christian is my favorite teacher. He's articulate, succinct , professional and very engaging. The time just flew by! He was helpful and just made a dreaded class ( sorry but nobody ever said this class was FUN) actually enjoyable! I hope I see you in the next two years. Thank you, Christian, and good luck in your career. You will do VERY well Cher Olson read more

The class was so informative and made sure to really put the most important details into your memory. Would highly recommend for anyone hoping to renew their BCLS! read more

This might just be my new go to spot for all my certifications and renewals bc of how great Christian was. He made that 4 hour class feel like a quick 30 minute session. Laid it down in ways we'd better understand and be able to remember. He's gonna be such a great educator and nurse. Emily appreciates you Christian! read more

I would give this place 10 stars if I can. Communicative staff that's available through texting. Less stress ACLS renewal I've ever had as the instructor would make sure you know the import points. Would come back for my BLS and recommend to my friends. read more

911 Medical Education - First Aid Classes Near Me - Long Beach, California

Super low stress environment for certification. Christian was the instructor, very amicable and thorough. 10/10 would recert here again.

I've been going here for my BLS certification for the past 6 years. The class is always productive and practical. Brian was my last instructor and he was so great! A real people-person! I always like to compare prices for classes and 911 Medical Ed is unmatched for the quality of the class. read more

I have enjoyed class with Brian. He has such a great demeanor and makes class fun to attend. I have been attending classes here for years and would definitely recommend them. read more

I wanted to add a new review since two years have passed and once again, Ilene and her team have made my Bi-annual certifications Fun to renew! I'm not kidding, as irritating as it is to always have to take the time to renew these professional and career long certifications, Medical 911 makes it (almost) something I look forward to. ZOOM has changed the world and Ilene is cutting edge:) Thank you Ilene! It's ALWAYS a pleasure to meet with and learn from you. If you guys are allowed to go outside your organization to obtain certifications, you simply cannot go wrong with Ilene and Medical911! Convenient, accommodating, and reasonable prices. read more

CA Paramedics and EMT's: you cant use the classes offered here for your CE hours as they dont have a CA prehospital CE provider number. I wish I knew this before enrolling. I now have to make up 16 hours pf instructor based CE at the last minute that I already paid for, and dont have time to retake. I texted the phone number prior to enrolling, and got a response pointing me to the website. It's VERY misleading because they have pictures of first responders on the front page, and it also states that the classes are great for paramedics and EMTs. They only have CEU for nurses. I wrote this review because if I knew CE from this business doesn't work for CA prehospital employees, I would have never enrolled. Update: Owner immediately responds by pulling up my EMT cert #, along with a threat to file a complaint with the LA county EMS authority unless I take down this review. She tells me to "grow up" and go get free CE from the internet. Do yourself a favor and stay away. read more

See all

Great CPR service ! I just referred another nurse ! .. even during CoVid very professional staff , set up , instruction ! Many of our local healthcare professionals use 911 , close to LB Memorial and Kaiser locations ( in SB) . They also have one in FV , near Orange Coast Memorial. Even though had a ' slight ' hick up with website payment ...it was fixed / rectified, made correct ! 911 read more

911 Medical Education - ex:payment options - First Aid Classes Near Me - Long Beach, California

I am back with an update. Ilene was able to respond to my messages yesterday. There was a system failure and for some reason messages weren't sent out. She was able to fix the problem and offer a discount for the class. Thank you. I will definitely be back again when the time comes. Very convenient class schedules and amazing customer service. read more

I needed to renew my PALS and picked this place since it has a lot of good reviews. The signup for classes is pretty easy (you can do it online or by phone). The instructor was pretty friendly and knowledgeable. The class itself went by pretty quick, even with the hands-on participation and practice with the mega codes. However, I docked a star because of the somewhat lack of organization in the beginning. Class was supposed to start at 9AM. However, the check-in process for everyone took forever that we didn't start until around 10AM. If they were to fix this by perhaps checking people in at the front, then the start of the class can run more smoothly. Other than that, this is a good place to get your renewals. read more

I've been renewing my certifications as a registered nurse for years now and this place has ALWAYS been my go to, even throughout the pandemic. The information presented is concise, accurate and updated to the most current version. I always have a tendency to procrastinate but they are always able to accommodate me. I recommend them to everyone! read more

I work as a Float Pool RN, and I'm soon to get cross trained to the ED and needed my PALS ASAP. During these crazy corona times, it'd been a struggle to find anyplace open near me. I remembered using 911 Medical Education during nursing school at CSULB and they were good, so I went ahead and looked on their website. There was a number that you can text 24/7 for questions. I was initially looking to do a blended session (online then in person verification) but after texting and calling, Ilene (owner I think) went ahead and said she'd do a small in person session for me. The day of my PALS class ended up being me and just one other person. Everyone wore masks, & hand sanitizer was available. I had a really good experience getting my PALS & renewing my BLS here. I recommend it to any healthcare professionals needing to get their certs :) read more

I was a Last minute add on. They are very very accommodating. Informed Ilene that I needed to renew my PALS/ACLS/BLS. She included me for their classes the following day. Our instructor Grant is very knowledgeable, detailed, hands on and has over 10 years of experience. Refreshed my knowledge and skills. I've attended other cardiac life support classes and I won't go anywhere but to this location. Thank you 911 for allowing me to have a wonderful experience while renewing my courses. read more

I took my PALS recert class here and it was a great experience. Fast, efficient, and got our cards in a timely manner.

This is a great place to renew your BLS cert! They offer classes everyday, so the class sizes end up being pretty small. In my own class, there was like six people. It was a little difficult to find the location, but it is located in the large, nondescript building. They are very welcoming -- there is coffee, tea, water, and candy to take before class or during your breaks, and the dummies are wearing pretty amusing t-shirts. The instructor let us know that we could come back at any time after we got our cert if we had any questions or needed advice. The class itself was very fast, and they try to get you through quickly. I have to say though, if it is your first time taking a BLS class, you might feel a little rushed. I am not sure if the renewal and first time classes are lumped together, but it's worth looking into because they might be paced differently. With the book, the price of the BLS class is $64. I felt like this was a pretty reasonable price; I didn't do much more research to find the absolute cheapest class, but it was the cheapest among the ones I did search in the area. read more

911 Medical Education - Haha - First Aid Classes Near Me - Long Beach, California

I took my ACLS class here, and it was a painless and smooth experience. David, my instructor, was lovely and answered my many questions with comfort and expertise. Would recommend both the location and the instructor!! read more

I've now come to 911 Medical Education twice to get my PALS certification. Each experience has been nothing short of amazing. They're one of the better places to go to for certifications because they give you you're card the same day. My course instructor was Ilene Castro and she did a marvelous job of presenting the information in a way that I could retain it. The course material is very specific to the pediatric population and every bit of information presented can be applied in the medical setting. There was no pressure and she makes you feel to ask questions and give answers to her questions. Parking: There's a private lot for parking on site. No attendants are on on the weekends so park wherever you like. I would definitely come back to this facility. Everyone is nice, friendly and make it an enjoyable experience. They offer BLS, PALS and ACLS as single courses as well as combo courses. read more

I just wanted to take a second to express my appreciation for my instructor for BLS under a health care provider, BETTY. She was very kind, informative, and patient! She took her time to explain every detail and always asked if we had questions after every explanation. She was very personal and positive and I was very lucky to have her as an instructor. I wish her luck in pre-med! Thank you BETTY and 911 Medical! read more

I really enjoyed my ACLS & BLS class experience here. David was super helpful. I wanted to fully understand ACLS. He spent his personal time after class to make sure I was comfortable with the information. He is very patient, understanding and a great teacher. He made everyone feel very comfortable. I highly recommend him for someone to learn from. Thanks again read more

Came here to get my ACLS Certification done with. Being a New-Grad RN, i wanted a place that was safe, efficient, and well-known. I had received multiple recommendations to go to 911 Medical Education, so i decided to do so. The pricing was good compared to other nearby instructors, and the sign-up process was efficient (the 24/7 text line is very handy if you have any questions). The course as efficient, the instructor and staff were friendly, welcoming, safe (masks, hand sanitizer, distanced), and knowledgeable. All-in-all, i had a great experience, and from what ive heard from others, this is their norm! :) I 100% recommend this facility for anyone needing any type of AHA certification, you wont be disappointed! (Received my AHA ACLS Certification E-Card via email within 24 hours too!) read more

I have been coming here for over a decade! Never disappoints, gets to the point, quality education for working professionals.

I totally recommend this place for those who are looking for AHA BLS or ACLS certificate. Especial thanks to Ilene Castro who is a very professional and supportive instructor. She assisted me in registration, and paying fees. She welcomed receiving and replying all my queries via texts and calls, at any time. David Arrizon, thank you for your very professional instructions. He replied to all of our questions, allowed us to take notes, gave us adequate feedback on our practice, and linked adequately content with practice. This center follows all possible measures to keep us safe during the COVID epidemic Thank you read more

BEST place to get your ACLS and BLS!! They accommodated me to the day I needed. Our instructor, Ryan, was extraordinary. He made our class fun, painlessly, and straightforward. This place is phenomenal. I would give it 10 stars if I could. Definitely will be coming back and recommending to other colleagues. Superb! read more

I was able to renew BLS and complete my ACLS in one day. Instructors were pleasant and approachable, and I was allowed to watch my tests be graded and ask questions (made a silly mistake on BLS but it's fine :D ). We were treated like guests, and there was coffee, tea, and snacks for anyone with hypoglycemia (or if you just worked late the night before - we ARE healthcare workers!). Anyway, all of my thanks to the amazing staff here. I'll be back! read more

Pleasure working with Ilene. She is very professional and will explain the technique in a way that is easy to understand. I enjoyed her class it is easy going without compromising quality and critical thinking skills. There is no need to feel intimidated by the vast amount of information as you can ask questions at any point during the course. I was allowed to write notes so that I can review the book at home. (Don't be afraid to ask questions!!!) My class experience during COVID: we all wore masks, clean facility, social distancing enforced. Plenty of room in the classroom. Facility is clean and easy to find and Staff is amazing. Thank you 911ME! read more

Brian was our instructor. He did a great job letting us know what to focus on in our ACLS/BLS recertification class. I will definitely return for any future classes. read more

Great place to take AHA certified courses! The instructor is phenomenal and the class is very stress-free but you definitely do learn. Parking can be a little tough. If you park on the street, make sure you pay close attention to the street sweeping signs. There's also a tiny underground parking structure with visitor spots. read more

I took ACLS here, 4 hours course $150. I will come back for BLS They have location in Long Beach and Fountain Valley. Staffs are very friendly and helpful read more

Great Place! I was looking for a place that does bls and ACLS within my availability and I stumbled upon this place via the AHA website. So happy I attended their class, friendly environment, very comfortable . They have all the equipment that u need and they are very convenient and there when you need them. read more

This place is convenient, their classes are offered on multiple days. The material and demonstrations are easy to understand even if you do not work in a hospital setting. They made the experience stress free. read more

I needed to take the PALS class for my new job and I did some searching on the internet and found that 911 Medical Education had the best rates and most number of classes available. They have 2 locations in Long Beach and Fountain Valley. I emailed them to double check and they were very prompt in responding. I signed up online and normally it's $190, but online they had it for $175. The class started at 9am and there was ample free parking at the Long Beach location. You check in and then you start class once everyone arrives. Marco was our instructor who was super knowledgeable, friendly, and very patient. He made sure that everyone understood the information, but at the same time didn't slow down the rest of the class. You get a couple breaks throughout and then you review before the exam and you're done! They also gave me a certificate good for 8 CE units so that was also a plus. I highly recommend this place and will be going back for my ACLS renewal as well. They also have a bunch of other classes and combo classes. read more

Awesome class and makes renewing all my certifications less of a hassle.. Instructor makes it interesting and fun and easy signup process. Definitely would recommend. read more

Wow, that was really surprisingly painless. No pressure, no stress, relaxed learning environment and no feeling like the slow one in the group. lol. Got my ACLS and BLS combo re-certifications here super last minute today (Saturday morning). Sat with an interesting group as well: 2 oral surgeon students, one pharmacist, and 2 other nurses. We got to learn a little about each other's careers on top of our acls and bls training, which made it interesting and fun to hear. Our instructor broke down our 50 q's into 2 x 25 tests (taken in the middle and end) to allow your brain to focus on what they just taught you. It's really soooooo much nicer than the previous ACLS class I took, you should give them a look because their prices aren't bad as well. Snacks, cold and hot water provided, coffee. Will definitely be coming back. read more

911 medical education is awesome!!! I had scheduled another company to do our BLS class and that company cancelled on me the morning of the scheduled class. I called 911 medical and they were awesome! They were able to come to our office the same day and give us our class! I am so very thankful and happy that they could help us out in a pinch. The class was educational and professional! read more

Came here for my acls class. It was super accommodating, small class size, straight forward, and informative. The 4 hours flew by as fast as an acls class can. Cheaper than the other places I looked up read more

This place rocks! They have a great website that is easy to register without the pressure of having to pay (there is a pay at class choice). There is also a great 24 hour texting number that responds almost immediately about any questions you have. They are flexible and they work well for the working professional! Awesome ACLS/BLS recert. class that combines the two instead of having to take them separately! read more

I came here for my ACLS, PALS, and BLS last week. I loved the relaxed vibe of this place! I've taken these courses in the past and hate how stressful they can sometimes be, but at 911 Medical they make it so easy to learn. My instructors name was Arquinta and Ilene and they were both really knowledgeable and hands on in terms of teaching. read more
