In a larger class, I definitely wouldn't have had that experience especially since I'm usually shy about asking questions. Yolanda was great as well. She scheduled me for a class quickly and even followed up afterward to make sure I received my certification card. Bonus that the class was only $49, compared to another agency I was looking at that charged $90. Overall an 11/10 experience!!

I took a CPR class with Lisya recently and it was great experience!! Lisya is so informative and…read moreher descriptions are so detailed. She knows exactly how to throw in humor to keep it light while highlighting the importance of the subject matter. I have been certified on and off for many years and this is the most clear concise description I have ever experienced! I feel more confident leaving her class than I ever have!! My one suggestion would be to provide antibacterial wipes to wipe down the dummies after each participant has their turn.

Lisya was awesome really enjoyed her energy and her thoroughness. I highly recommend her BLS class.read more

Chris has a wealth of medical knowledge, training and made the course successful for my certification. The Team at Express Training Solutions are on top of the game with AHA course.

However, the computer was monitoring me and giving advice that was super helpful. I believe that my favorite thing about Surefire would be the convenience, there are multiple locations in San Diego and they are offered at by the hour. There was a link that had videos of someone else practicing CPR on the mannequins, which was super helpful- on that same link showed a video of instructions on how to enter the building. Once I arrived to the room, I turned the light on, wiped down the mannequins with a sanitizer wipe, and then logged into the computer. You're given multiple attempts to pass, and it will give you advice on how often you should compress/ventilate, when you switch, and how deep your compressions should go. I would recommend this experience to anyone.

Surefire is totally worth it for the convenience and concise, effective teaching. Once i signed up, I was able to access my course content which I did at home. You are able to stop as needed. I was able to complete my course in less than one hour. The skills check location was professional, clean, organized and everything was clearly labeled. I was sent a few videos with tips for passing the skills check and clear instructions on how to get to the location/suite. Despite there being no instructor, the location feels very safe and there are so many instructions posted that one would know exactly what to do to pass their skills check and in a timely manner. I am very happy with my experience and will be recommending Surefire to others!

The director or whoever the fuck she thinks she is talks to you like you below her, little does she know shes as important as an ant that I stepped on the other day. It's actually impossible to communicate with her because she treats you like you had no value. Do not attend this school, future CNA's do not deserve to be treated like this neither do they need to be around this type of toxic energy. PLEASE. DO NOT GO HERE. Besides the horrible staff, they are not on top of their shit and it is so unprofessional.

I cannot recommend SDMC enough…read more I wasn't originally supposed to go to this school for my CNA program. Although I was interested in going here, I picked another program over this one just because it didn't take as long to complete the CNA course and I was kind of in a rush. However, things went horribly wrong at the last minute with the other school (as in, they enrolled me for a weekend class - which would have had me finishing a MONTH after I wanted to, instead of the weekday class without telling me) so I had to enroll at this school at the last minute. Even though it was seemingly inconvenient at the time, I now couldn't be happier that things fell through with that other school because I truly believe this is the best school I - or anyone else for that matter - could go to. I was part of the first inaugurating class at the National City campus and I loved my experience there. We had the pleasure of having three different professors - Ms. Tuba, the owner and complete angel/sweetheart of a human being, Dr. Ray, an actual doctor!, and then Roy, our skills professor (also the resident sweetheart despite the tough exterior). They are all incredible! They DEFINITELY know what they're talking about and truly care about your success not only as a CNA, but as a person as well! They're quick to offer any form of support they can offer you (ex. setting up interviews with places for you, staying to practice skills with you even if they're not paid, explaining something in depth so you understand it, being a reference for you, giving you a list of 240+ practice questions for your written exam, skills videos to look at at home to practice, etc.). They are just AWESOME! I don't think I've ever felt more supported by a place in my entire life, to be honest. My classmates were the absolute sweetest and I felt so fortunate to meet them! There's also a Facebook Group you can join where old and new students help each other out with any questions, let each other know about any job openings, etc.! It's just a great big community that I am so happy and proud to be a part of. Everyone just wants everyone to do well and succeed and it's so awesome! The school itself is really nice too. It is beautifully decorated and you have everything you need and more! Parking might be a slight problem for larger classes (my class had 6 people in it, including me) since the area is shared with other businesses, but I wouldn't worry about it. It could potentially be tricky to snag a spot directly in front of the campus, but there's a large parking lot just around the corner (just drive past Tita's Kitchenette and Island Pacific Supermarket) that has several parking spots available. So worst case scenario, you just have to walk 2-3 minutes over, which isn't a problem in the slightest. I have zero doubts that I will pass my certification exam with ease. I can confidently say that I've received the best education and support here! Register to do your classes here! You will not regret it!
