Joan is amazing! I had to renew my CPR / BLS certificate and it was such a painless process. She responds fast, explains things thoroughly and is just so sweet. I recommend everyone go to her. The only bad thing is parking but if you circle around a couple times, you'll find a spot. read more

Need CPR/BLS certification? Instructor Joan got you. Just message for course availability. Course is pretty self explanatory, and instructor is there to clarify any questions. There are practice dummies for you to get hands-on practice of the skill. Been coming back for years now read more

Love this place Joan is super nice. Was recommended by my co-workers to come and renew my cpr license. Totally worth the money.

Get here sooner than later cause its hard to find parking on the neighborhood streets. Also, gps from 101 sj took me around a bit..so.....exit juniperro serra to get on mission bl This is a small cpr studio located in a neighborhood off of Mission Bl in Daly City. The 4 hour course is very thorough, the instructor/owner Joan, is a real nice and polite person ...she has everything you need to understand how to save a life, if needed. I highly recommend this business to anybody who needs to take a BLS class and especially to any healthcare worker who needs to take their renewal BLS class!!! Cost (when i went) is $80 They are available last minute so call em up(or text) and get scheduled in read more

Joan is a great instructor. Highly Highly recommend. Since I was there for renewal, lots of memories were refreshed.

Joan is great, the class was easy to follow. Learned a lot. Great process overall. Will highly recommend to others who need to renew BLS.

The BLS class was very informative combining video and hands on learning using dummies to practice. Joan is an awesome instructor, she made the class fun and positive experience for all that attended. I will definitely return for my renewal. read more

Knowledgeable staff and friendly environment. George is a great teacher and spoke in a way that made class easy to understand. Will definitely renew my acls/bls here again! read more

Joanne is Amazing teacher! Highly recommended to anyone who wants CPR Cert! What are u waiting for!

10/10 CPR/BLS certification class! Would highly recommend coming here for your renewal! Joan is great instructor

I had an excellent experience with Joan. She is very quick to respond. She got me scheduled in one of her classes, I was lucky to still have a spot left since I needed it ASAP. I received an email same day after the class to receive my cpr card! Will definitely be recommending her to anyone who needs their CPR class! read more

My boyfriend and I both had an amazing experience here and we agree we would both come here again to renew our certification! Joan was such a great woman and we both felt so welcomed by her. read more

Learning is fun with Joan...! She made everything straight forward and very supportive. No intimidation.

I called 1 day before actually coming in and I didn't get an answer but they texted me a couple hours later! (I think it's the owners personal phone and that's why she doesn't answer calls but responds to texts quickly) so I would recommend texting the number instead! I was able to get a spot in the class for BLS the next day and we get our cards emailed the same day but later that day. The cost is $80 for BLS, not bad compared to other places! The lesson itself was great, I learned a lot (this was my first time ever doing a cpr lesson) people go in to take the course to renew their card as well. Though the class is 4 hours when I went since it was such a small group that day it took way less time than 4 hours. I would recommend this place to anyone! I liked the way Joan (the owner) talked us through the lesson and would correct us and help us if we were doing something incorrectly and she has a funny sense of humor. Definitely coming back here to renew. read more

Heard about this place through my coworker. I called the number and left a message. Joan Joan called back right away. Joan was nice to interact with on the phone and in person. Very easy to set a class since she was flexible. We only had to take the first aid training and the other folks did CPR also. She made the class light, fun and direct to the point. Her facility was nice and clean so that was awesome. Definitely recommend her. read more

I have had to get a CPR certification twice now (Initial and Renewal) and they were both from Ms. Joan Ventura. She's an amazing instructor and really knows her stuff. Her facility is really clean and smells really good lol. Enrolling for a class is very easy, just send her an email/call/text and she will be accommodate you if there is room. No complicated enrolling procedures. The price is also very fair at $75 (Thats how much I paid for my renewal and as far as I can remember that's how much it was the first time as well). If you're in the Daly City/San Francisco area and is currently looking for a place to get CPR certified you need to go see Joan! read more

Joan the instructor is nice, very thorough, and informative. She made the class fun it made the time go faster. Her facility is nice with complete equipments they are kept clean. She comply with the safety guidelines for COVID 19 to feel safe. Highly recommended. read more

Wish I could give zero starts, but 1 is the lowest option. I contacted Joan, she directed me to contact another number for information. Texted them and they were EXTREMELY unprofessional. "Lol" ... "you can go some place else" ... all I did was ask for information about the class before signing up. Is that an issue? I would never take a class to get certified for ACLS from someone as unprofessional as this. read more

Joan is a wonderful instructor! She is very patient and thorough. She also explains the content well. I would definitely come back for my renewal!! read more

Before taking this class, I didn't really know much about CPR. But Joan's teaching style doesn't beat around the bush; it's straight to the point and most of the lessons are hands on (and not some bad quality tutorial video that was filmed in the 90s). Joan is also very understanding. I came with two other friends. and we were late because we had difficulty finding parking. We ended up being about 15 minutes late to class. Joan had also thought that when we set up an appointment for the CPR class that only 1 person was coming in (not 3). Despite being late and having more people than expected, Joan quickly accommodated us. I couldn't have asked for a better CPR instructor than Joan! Highly recommend to anyone who is looking to get or renew their CPR certification! read more

The CPR class they provide here is very thorough, Joan, the instructor is lively and very informative which makes everyone in class participate. The location is very convenient too. read more

Took this class with Joan 4 years ago when she was at another location. Decided to come renew with her again at this new location. She was awesome. I felt that the training I got here was more effective than the BLS class at my work... (And I work at Stanford hosp....not saying that Stanford isn't good) but I feel more confident with my Skills now. The teaching was Very thorough, definitely got a good work out haha.. At the end of the class I felt like I could save lives right out the door !! I suggest everyone to go here. THE BEST INSTRUCTOR See you in 2018 Joan ! read more

Joan is awesome. She made the class a positive, light experience. It did not get boring. George's ACLS class was straight to the point and I think was tailored well for any healthcare provider. It was not dry and seemingly never ending like many courses. I will be coming here for renewals no matter where I live. read more

I went to Joan to get recertification and my son to get certified. Joan is very knowledgable, patient, quite informative, thorough and just an all around great instructor. The facility was clean with all the necessary equipment including floor mats. The class took about 3 hours and everything was covered within that time frame. Parking isn't too bad and there is parking behind the building. Conveniently located near 280 and Saturday classes available. She's great and I will refer her to all my nursing friends. read more

Great class and a fun atmosphere! Excellent renewal course if you are already certified, but just as good for a first-time learner. Go prepared to be on your knees on a kneeling pad, and wear something you can work up a sweat in. Sweats or scrubs are an ideal choice. I had just had a cast removed from my lower leg and wasn't comfortable kneeling, and one other student had a bad back and worked at a desk, but there was only enough desk space for the two of us, in a class of about 20. If you know you will need accommodations like that, call ahead and let them know. read more

I thank Ms. Joan for brushing up my knowledge and skills in life saving. I had fun today in our class. She's really a great instructor. Highly recommended read more

I renewed by BLS today. It was only me and one other student. It only took about 2 hours. The class was informative. I didn't feel rushed nor did I feel like it was dragging. The mannequin and training equipment were clean and in good condition. The instructor also provides a mat for when you're kneeling on the floor. Joan was the instructor, she's very knowledgeable and super nice. She takes time to make sure we understand the material and let's us ask questions. I'll for sure come back for my next renewal and I'll recommend this place to my nursing friends! read more

Took the BLS class with Joan and I would highly recommend anyone looking to get certified to go to Positive Heart CPR! She made the class go by fast, presented the content in way that was so easy to understand and answered all my questions promptly! Not only did she answer them promptly, but it was so easy to ask her for clarification on anything and everything because she's such a warm person and very easy to talk to. I'm sure I'll be back in 2 years to renew my certification, 100% recommend to anyone!! :-))) read more

Ms. Joan Ventura is very and accomodating instructor. She's very flexible in your schedule. At first, I thought I will feel intimidated because Im just new to a Medical Field, but when I came to her... She's the one who encourage me to continue and CPR will be my first step, not only that she offered me a help that if I think I need an assistance in my study she's there. The Facility is so clean, adequate space. Right after the mini lecture, there goes by the practical and of course the Exam and after. I will highly recommend POSITIVE HEART to all those who wanted to have a CPR certificate and I will surely come back to Positive Heart to renew my licensed on the 2017. Positive Heart is a certified by American Heart Association (AHA) read more

First time here, and like everyone says...THEY'RE GREAT. Joan was very warm and welcoming and professional. She was easy to talk to and made the time go by quickly. I recommend Joan to anyone looking to take BLS. I will be coming back for my ACLS renewal! read more

First of all I want to thank Ms. JOAN for accomodating me to her class, I called her like 2 hours before the BLS training. Im not even sure if i can make it on time. I arrived anyway 5pm. So I came first..and there was like 4 of us. All her lectures were clear and can be understood by anyone. She made it simple, direct to the point. And let us do the skills even though im on my dress..lol.but I did it.with all her help I learned alot of new ideas on how to revive a persons life. It maybe an infant to child to adult. Everyone of us has to learn this because we carry this for a lifetime. I recommend this training school to everyone..this is the best place for a training. You wont get bored..you will enjoy the training. Thank you Ms Joan.. read more

Great experience with the staff. Very courteous, kind and open to answer all the questions you need to know. Not your typical CPR class wherein after the class that's it. For them it was a different experience and great follow up whenever you need help. Highly recommended to all clinicians! read more

Ma'am Joan is the best. She is so nice,very understanding and easy to talk too. I will recommend ma'am Joan to everyone.

Positive Heart CPR - Excellent location! - CPR Classes Near Me - Daly City, California

I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars. Joan's explanations and demonstration were clear, concise and straight to the point. The class was efficient for the lack of a better word. No one wants to sit through a 4 hour class but Joan made it pleasant and didn't just leave us watching the (boring) videos. Really good price for a CPR class! Recommend to anyone looking for CPR certification. I know I will come back here for a renewal in 2 years. read more
