We had about 12 people in our class, most of them taking the class as a requirement for their job (like me, too). We powered through all of the modules without breaks (we all agreed on this, of course) and were done an hour earlier! It will take you half a day to complete the course. You will do exercises (wrapping a bandage, CPR, AED operation and more tasks) but there is no written test for certification, just participation. My colleague and I walked out feeling more confident and equipped to handle situations that could arise at work (we deal with the public when we are open, so it is a requirement on our employer to take the class). I will sign up again when I have to re-certify in two years with this company.

This type of coursework is literally lifesaving but with the wrong instructor, it can easily be a snoozefest. Andrew is the opposite of that and you can tell he's quite passionate about teaching. He made sure to make everyone feel included and answered questions and addressed hesitations in material. I'm normally quiet in these types of classroom settings but I felt confident to ask questions and perform the exercises that were required.

She explains concepts clearly, makes sure everyone understands the material, and is very patient when answering questions. What makes her stand out is how hands-on she is during clinical and skills practice--she takes the time to demonstrate procedures thoroughly and helps students build confidence step by step. Her teaching style makes learning easier and less stressful, and she creates a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking for help. I appreciate how dedicated, knowledgeable, and encouraging she is, and I feel very fortunate to have her as an instructor.

Where do I begin sharing my journey of being a nursing student, to now being a licensed vocational nurse? First and foremost, I have to respectfully start of by thanking my team: Joyce-- Who was my AMAZING student representative, my guide and my stepping stone into the VN program. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart, for assisting me into the VN program, with ease, poise, support and a full understanding that I was going to be a successful nurse in the future. I can't stress this enough when I say, I sincerely appreciate you for all you've done, from getting me enrolled to Pre-Reqs, to getting me into an unbelievable Cohort (SJ 8) and to always checking in with me throughout my nursing school journey. You played a huge role in my success and I will never stress that enough. Rita-- Who was my FINANCIAL AID representative. Thank you for being able to answer all my questions in regards to financially covering all my school expenses within a timely manner. Thank you for always being so patient, quick with my questions and concerns, but also for believing in me to complete the VN program as well. You definitely were a support system and making sure I had the financial backing to get through this program in smooth sailing. Emily-- Who was my VN Academic Assistant Coordinator. Thank you so much for making sure all my ducks were lined up in a row. From making sure all my health documents were up to date and or making sure my overall wellbeing was taken care as well too! You've continuously shown your support in my nursing journey and have always made sure I was being supported in any capacity! I want to to say thank you so much for always being there for me! ***Notable shout out to Mary & Zach as well! You three are awesome and deserving of the best! & now the best part, to my instructors and role models: Ms. Lauri, Ms. Marguerite, Ms. Wong, Ms. Finck, Ms. Sovela, Mr. Neil, Ms. Relos, Ms. Kat, Ms. Katherine & Ms. Sindhu-- Thank you all individually, for not only shaping me to be a great future nurse, but also teaching me what it truly means to being a nurse. From clinical's, skills labs to in class lectures, or even helpful advice in the halls, you all have contributed to my success today and I have so much gratitude in my heart for each and every one of you. Thank you so much! ***THEY DESERVE THE RECOGNITION & A HUGE RAISE AS WELL! LAST, BUT NOT LEAST, THE ONE THE ONLY, THE MOST RESPECTED EVER, MR TRAVIS COLBY. Oh my, where do I even begin? I'm going to try my best to not cry as I express my genuine appreciation for this amazing instructor, but also human being. Mr. Colby, has been the most professional, supportive, caring, kind, understanding, yet respectfully unapologetic and influential nurse I ever met. He has been very consistent in his career especially when it comes to teaching not only myself, but many past amazing nurses of his time. Truthfully, Mr. Colby has always pushed me to my true limits and all I can really say is, I always have appreciated him for it. He always believed in me from the start of the program, to even now. He has definitely played a huge role in why I'm so proud to be a nurse now, but also a successful one! If there's one thing Mr. Colby has always taught me is that, to be a nurse is a privilege and honor. And to now be a part of a well respected profession, that I get to proudly be part of and is now my career, I couldn't have asked for a better role model to lead me to my path of nursing. With that being said, Mr. Colby, I genuinely appreciate you for all the experiences, support & knowledge you've shared with me. I will forever cherish them and utilize what you taught me, towards my nursing career! FOR FUTURE NURSING STUDENTS: If you're truly passionate, committed and willing to become a nurse, you can make your dreams a reality. Be ready to make sacrifices, go through the ups and downs of life and truthfully, unlock your inner being of what it means to be a 'nurse'. --Nurse Alina

She offered a very reasonable rate and was willing to train a large group of 4th and 5th graders. On the day of the training she arrived early and was professionally dressed.

One of my Scouts started to lose interest and she immediately roped him into the first aid lesson where she was demonstrating on him and that drew him right back into the lesson. I give her an A+ for her knowledge and ability to impart that knowledge to others.

I enjoyed learning a few new things, which after 32 years of bi-annual trainings is always a good thing! She offers a discount if you have 6 or more people in your group. I highly recommend Heather for CPR/first aid training.

We had…read moresuch a great experience with Farnsworth from beginning sign-up to Izzy getting her tadpole report card and lollipop. ;) Coming into The swim school early June, Izzy was very scared of the water and would not put her face in at all. She cried the first lesson and wanted to get out of the pool. Jaynie and the teachers are very patient with the kids , but also know how to keep them in the water through the crying to get them to a more comfortable place. I love their approach and how they focused on technique first (big arms, blowing bubbles, strong kicks), and progressed to teaching a little more each day. Leena was Izzy's instructor for 2 of the sessions and I was blown away by what she could do by the end! She was able to go under, touch the bottom of the pool, hold her breath for a few seconds at a time, jump in and go under, and float on her back for a few seconds. Izzy gained a lot of confidence in her swimming this summer. She told me each day she was excited to go in, get rings and put her head under. Most all of this is to Leena's credit. She is so positive and engaging, and is really great at building trust and swim technique. She may not know how to swim alone yet, but by next summer I'm sure she will be able to! ;) Thank you Farnham!
