I am currently taking the EMT Original 139 accelerated course with this agency, and the academic…read morestructure is phenomenal, with online learning and interactive lectures. Marisol, Benny, and Ze are the best instructors while Patrick Meyers is not so good. Instructor Patrick Meyers who is new to B&H the last two days has not been able to get fully through the complete chapters on time. Patrick has shown a little disrespect towards me while showing his dislike of me by disregarding my comment when he asked what some kinds of airway obstructions and I listed Hyperoxia, and he never acknowledged my comment to confirm or deny if that was one but he did acknowledge everyone else's response. Later in the day, when discussing airway assistive devices, I asked if NPA's are required to be sterile, and Patrick chose to address two other students' questions first when I asked my question before everyone else. Regardless if he likes me or not Is moot because I really don't care enough about his petty behavior. Some other issues I have are the lack of organization during class, there are 31 students in this class, and when answering or asking questions, students are over-talking one another because they are not raising their hand, and it's very distracting while showing a lack of regard for classroom etiquette. As per the course schedule for this class, we were supposed to have our first quiz on chapters one through 5 today, but because other students are not prepared and don't have the materials, the students who are prepared, like myself have to pay the price, and now we will have two quizzes on Monday instead of one which is not fair at all. B&H and its EMT course need some restructuring regarding testing procedures and communication adjustments. I sent an e-mail on Tuesday August 12th a day after the first day of class and I had requested promises to be swapped out of this accelerated EMT program and into the non-accelerated program that starts in October after realizing that between work, attending college and attending this class Monday through Thursday from 9:00 to 5:00 I'm having a hard time finding study time and am struggling to retain and process some of the information as a result of that. I have not received an email from B&H in almost 48 hours, and there is nothing in the contract that I signed regarding the payment of the program that says I can be switched to another program or cannot. It is often very hard to get a hold of anyone from this office, whether you're calling them or sending an email, and I am not the first person to say this. Despite these minor operations and testing issues, which are fixable, B&H is one of the best training locations to take your EMT Original Course in NYC!

I took the summer course with Karen Fiorello. To preface- this course is for serious students only!…read moreIf you've gone to summer college courses before, it's pretty on par with the amount of material you will need to cover. Unless you already took biology elective courses in college, you will need to dedicate a whole day at least to completing the reading and assignments. All the reviewers that whined about how much you have to cram probably have no experience taking college summer courses- so again, SERIOUS STUDENTS ONLY! If you are not confident about how much you can retain in such a short time, speak to ECP about their longer sessions- the session I took was only 3 months. You can always discuss switching courses within the first few weeks, ECP will work with you on that. Adversely, if you're already a biology major, you can take the advanced course. After working as an EMT for five months, I can confidently say that ECP prepared me for almost everything (you know, minus specific company policies and issues). Some things I've learned were not even taught by the programs my work partners went to. Karen was always available on the class WhatsApp chat and all the other instructors like AnneMarie, Rickey, Chris(both of them), Moon, Irene, Shirley, Amanda, ...etc were always happy to provided real life experience advices and tips. Most if not all of them graduated from ECP too. I'm still in contact with some of my classmates and instructors to exchange information about protocol changes and such. Like other programs, ECP mandates a rotation with the option to do a 911 rotation which really helps with orienting yourself to the job. Some of my classmates have even gone on to STRIKE Team (emergency calls and stat transfers only) within a few short weeks because of how well ECP trained us. ECP runs their program very professionally, and will treat you as a professional if you show respect in turn- this isn't high school anymore, people! They try to mirror the partnership and shared responsibility aspect of the EMT life- which I really liked because it translated well to the actual job. I've had partners from other programs that almost got me in trouble because they didn't learn this in their programs. So yes, if you've read the other reviews, you will be kicked out of the program if you mess around or don't keep up with deadlines. Honestly, as one of the people doing well in the class, I didn't like being dragged down by the ones who were not doing well and was actually glad when they got kicked out (especially the ones that slept in class or didn't learn anything- I wouldn't want them as partners at work!). A lot of people may whine about not having enough time to finish their assignments- but all assignments are given in the beginning of the course along with the deadlines and they take approximately an hour or less to finish. I've known other classes that completed all the assignments within a week. By the way, the tests are all designed to mirror the national exam- how questions are asked and what information is more important to know. It's pretty hard to fail the certification test if you pass all the class exams. Attrition might be low in some classes (our class lost maybe 10 out of 30 students but there has been one class of 60 I know of that only lost 4) but in the end it filters out the people that wouldn't make good EMTs for whatever reason- this is a job, after all, that people's health and lives depends on. Overall, I think ECP is one of the better programs if you're looking to become an EMT quickly but competently. I haven't noticed any difference in knowledge and skill level between this program and other programs (even FDNY's EMT program which is one year). Just be sure you're willing to make sacrifices (I.e. potentially your social life) like you would as a certified EMT.

Stay away from this business and if you must interact with this business avoid contact with Leah…read moreshe engages in deceptive, bias and bait and switch business practices. She/this business will likely waste you time in the end.... I have been a licensed HHA since 2019 by the Department of Heath and currently attend college for Social Work and am a 4.0 college student and without a doubt dodged a bullet with potentially being trained with inaccurate information and or not all of the pertinent information as it pertains to the classes. If a program fails to provide basic pertinent information such as their will be a quiz during this orientation/ interview what else are they gonna leave out... That's dangerous and creates unprepared and potentially misinformed future EMT's I was invited to attend the Senior Care sponsored EMT program Orientation/ Interview in February of 2025 it was never mentioned that I would have to take a test and upon taking that test I scored a 9/10 and was invited to continue to interview with Senior Care on another day which it was never mentioned that their is a two part interview. I ended up getting covid and was unable to attend that second interview and had sent an email and requested to reschedule that second interview however, nobody replied to me. I signed up for the next sponsored orientation and was invited to attend again Thursday, May 22nd, 2025 and attended. There was no mention yet again that I was required to take the same test that I took last time I came in less than 6 months ago, Obviously I was not aiming to score high on the same test I was aiming to simply pass which I did and got a 7/10 not knowing that that this program does not accept those that score 8 or lower which I found out literally yesterday after I pressed Leah for the truth on the phone yesterday which is bias. Upon speaking to Leah on the phone yesterday I wanted to follow up and see if they would be letting me in this sponsored class and explained to her why I scored low and to advocate for myself to start the conversation off she stated " why did you call us for this you could have sent an email" I felt like saying well i would have if you guys had replied to my last one but kept it to myself. Long story short she stated that we do not accept people into the program who score 8 or below. I argued that passing is passing and that my college GPA and my healthcare experience should trump that exam which is logical and practical argument she indicated that they would not accept and being very cloak and dagger and I asked flat out are you accepting me into this program yes or no and she stated no. My time and money was wasted traveling from Far Rockaway. This program has no respect for my time at all but in the end I do not want to be associated with with a program that engages in the shady and bias business practices but in the end it worked out for the best. A snake will always be a snake no matter how many times it sheds its skin.........

I was signed up by my company to attend a first aid course taught by this company's CEO, Dr. Roman…read moreMatthews. My supervisor specifically told him that I had taken the CPR course already, and that I would only be going for the First Aid course. I was told to be there at 9:30am on a Saturday. The good doctor arrives after 10am and seems to make a beeline to my co-worker and I. After a friendly introduction, he strangely asks us under his breath to help him set up. Confused, I followed him, and he asked, "you don't mind helping, right"? I replied, "Sure, I just thought it was kinda weird for you to ask". He then goes into this diatribe about wanting to only teach people that were willing to help others! Mind you, he didn't ask any of the other 20 people there for help. His tone was very condescending and disrespectful. He seemed to make grand assumptions about who my co-worker and I were. I had to ask him if there was going to be some problem with today's course, and he said no. As he and his assistant are setting up (well past the scheduled start time btw), I notice they are setting up for CPR first. I pull him to the side in a very friendly way and asked if we could do First Aid first since that's what I was there for. He admitted to speaking to my supervisor himself when scheduling me, but did not remember my supervisor telling him that I already took CPR. Oddly, he strongly encouraged me to stay for the CPR course even though I had just completed it a week ago. I even showed him my certificate. He said he would consider doing First Aid first, but "had to check" with someone first. As time goes on and they continue to set up, I see him avoiding eye contact with me. I approach him and ask if he is able to do First Aid first, and he says no because "it's not what's best for the group". I asked if anyone was there for CPR only to which he stated no. He never gave an explanation as to how this would be best for the group. He then instructed me to just come back 3-4 hours later which would mean I would have to kill that time (and likely spend money) in the area since I live 45 min. away from the site he was running his course at. In summary, this person appears to have some severe ego complex. My co-worker, who stayed for both trainings, reported to me that he was acting very oddly throughout the training, and had made her do things unnecessary for either CPR or First Aid certification. I would definitely recommend you stay very far away from Dr. Roman Matthews and his company.
