There are many online CPR courses which I did take but were not valid when I submitted it to the state. I took the class with Francisco the owner which is prior military and firefighter. From day one it was really easy to get a hold of him and to arrange for the class. I got lucky that my class ended up being just me so I got to ask any questions I had and Francisco would gladly answer them. The whole experience was an easy and very insightful. Francisco does a great job teaching and cares about you learning.

What better way to start the new year than driving 10 miles on an unforgivingly chilly - and icy -…read moreSaturday morning for CPR training, right? I've been to my share of first aid and CPR courses and today's was my third in the U.S. alone, but the experience was so exceptional that I felt I needed to share it! CPR/AED is a useful skill for anyone regardless of industry but especially in my line of work - healthcare -, and I needed to renew my Basic Life Support (BLS) for Healthcare Providers certification, which is valid or two full years once you complete the lecture, hands-on skills training, and a written quiz. Beating Hearts CPR is an American Heart Association-approved training provider, and their training courses seem to be held on certain Saturdays. The training site is located on level 3 of a business building with Capital One bank on the ground level, and the building was pretty much on lockdown. According to the security staff on site, you need to call Wayne , the training coordinator, who will come down to let you into the building and take you up to the training room. Donna is an experienced nurse and was the lead trainer, and I cannot stress enough that they care, they're prepared, and they're professional. All equipment was not only visibly clean and well-maintained, but they were meticulously laid out and distributed to each student ahead of each section of the training, and the hybrid instruction method using up-to-date AHA instructional videos and verbal presentation was seamlessly delivered to help me stay engaged and focused the entire 3+ hours. Both instructors were also courteous but also laid back, and their sense of humour made the training fun and enjoyable rather than feeling like a chore, which unfortunately is often the case. Recommended!

I have taken the CPR & AED course (for trainers and laypeople) twice in the last 3 years with Life…read moreRescue, and enjoyed it both times. In both cases, my instructor was Amer Tobing, and I wouldn't hesitate for a second before taking his course again when my certification expires. Although I've been CPR certified several times, Life Rescue offered more practical information than my previous certs. Amer's background as a firefighter and in emergency medical services shows, as he has a focused, no-nonsense attitude toward assessing an emergency situation and acting. He teaches us to think in a similar manner by addressing and hammering the most important things to know and remember. He also has a sense of humor, and is great at connecting with people, which makes his class more fun than I ever expected. But make no mistake: he takes his job and the subject matter very seriously, and doesn't let jokes overshadow or displace what is most important. I like how he spends a lot of time focusing on the reality of emergency situations vs. textbook scenarios, because there are some things that books won't tell you. Even though I had taken his class before, the second time around, he didn't let me off the hook if I could have performed something better. I really appreciated it, because it's sometimes the little things that can make a difference. Overall, it feels less like a class and more like practicing and discussing with a coach. I learned more each time, and further reinforced what I previously knew. I feel much more confident after having taken his course, would recommend it to anyone, and actually look forward to taking it again in the future.

Dear reader, The…read moreAmerican Red Cross donation centre is one of those rare places I am always genuinely happy to return to. I donate every time I am eligible, like clockwork, and the experience here has been consistently excellent. There is tons of parking, which makes arriving easy, and the building itself is nice, clean, and well set up for a smooth visit. Inside, there are plenty of chairs, and I have rarely had any issue with a long wait, provided I have made an appointment, which I always do. The whole process feels organised and efficient without ever feeling rushed. More importantly, the staff are so nice, skilled, and reassuring, and they truly seem to love what they do. That sort of energy makes a real difference when one is sitting there preparing to part with a pint. I also must give a proper shoutout to Trina and Flora, who have done my donation a few times and absolutely rock. They are kind, capable, and the sort of people who make you feel completely at ease. A final point in this establishment's favour: the snacks are great, which is no small matter after donating. Overall, this is a thoroughly well-run place doing important work, and I will happily keep coming back.

Fairfax, VA - I've been giving blood for years. I prefer this location rather than the mobile units…read moreas I believe the phlebotomists here have more experience since this location also does platelets and power reds. My best advice to avoid scheduling issues is to schedule an early morning appointment. By late afternoon things can sometimes be backed up causing a longer wait. Another plus to this location is they no longer have to prick your finger to test your iron level prior to donating. Now they use a device that is placed on your thumb which uses light to detect your blood iron. Pretty nifty! The donation process takes place in comfy chairs and goes by quickly if you remember to hydrate ahead of time. The phlebotomists are all very professional and take care to check on you throughout the process. The snacks afterwards in the canteen vary. I had Oreos, Cheese It's and Lorna Doones. One small beef I have is there's no recycling bin for the water bottles. I try to remember to bring my own reusable bottle or I bring the empty home to recycle.
