Here's what I liked: - Easy scheduling - laid back "no pressure" atmosphere. - Easy to communicate with the friendly staff - inexpensive - welcoming; for example, you can sit through classes for free if you feel you need more instruction - comfortable environment ; The class was small in a nice area and building on the second floor. - set you up for success which is how it should be! Note: I did have to go across the street to pay cash after the class but it was no big deal. Plan to have cash on hand in the event you cannot pay electronically or just plan to stop at an ATM after. Thanks Mike! And thanks to the organization also for providing a no stress ACLS class! I will be coming back for PALS

After signing up, I was quickly contacted with information on how to complete my 2 hour online portion of the course prior to my 1 hour in-person portion. The online course was straight forward and thorough. The in-person portion with Derek was fun. He was clear and concise and very knowledgable. He was able to relate situations to our profession which made the course more interesting. Derek's equipment was all very clean and well-maintained. I have attended multiple courses throughout my lifetime and he had the coolest mannequins that provided feedback on depth and speed of compressions! Will definitely recommend Optimum CPR to my colleagues!

She was personable and made something that seemed intimidating easy and fun. She was able to allow me to be part of her BLS course the same day I contacted her - something I was not expecting but was extremely happy about. I took the online AHA course and took her course that tests just the hands-on skills. Even so, the course still took 2.5 hours, which I definitely had not anticipated. Absolutely go see Zera if you need your BLS certification! She's more affordable than most places I checked, and had way more availability than other places, too. Plus she clearly loves what she does and it shows in the way she teaches us!

"EXEMPLARY PROFESSIONAL TRAINING PROVIDED THROUGH SAC-STATE"…read more SIT REP In one of my roles for my employer - the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) - my training-section provides a training opportunity for our licensing enforcement officers & investigators who work in the Community Care Licensing Division (CCLD). These officers must go out to state-licensed Community Care Facilities where they investigate complaints about facility-deficiencies, neglect or outright abuse on the client-populations residing in these facilities. For those officers entrusted to the specific investigations of Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly (RCFEs), and for the Chronically Ill (RCFCIs), California State University - Sacramento (CSUS) provides important subject-matter information that allows our officers to investigate these cases with a far better understanding of the demands placed on the licensed facility, on the staff, and what minimum standards for acceptable care should be maintained for the elderly client population residing at these facilities. In addition, there is a training requirement mandated by the State Legislature that our officers go through so many hours of training on these specialized subject-matter areas. THE SET-UP & CURRICULUM For the last five (5) years, I've enjoyed the experience of working with Dr. Osborn of CSU-Sacramento's School of Gerontology. She and her instructor staff have provided our CCLD officers with great curriculum and in-class training that has helped them get the knowledge base and hands-on skills they need to better interact with the facility staff and the elderly client populations. The various modules in this 40 HR training provide a lot of specific information that deals with the health needs of the elderly, better understandings of mental handicaps and deficiencies, minimum standards for residential living, and better communication tools for interpersonal action with elderly populations. Other specialized modules also discuss dealing with family members of the elderly and being sensitive to their frames of mind, as well as other related issues dealing with end-of-life scenarios. THE LOWDOWN The CSUS School of Gerontology can provide excellent program knowledge on the elderly populations of our society so that greater understanding of their unique needs can be provided.

I had signed up for a CPR class for job purposes a month in advance. Less than 48 hours before my…read morescheduled class I get an email saying the class will be cancelled. Unfortunately, I needed to take the class on that date and could not reschedule. I had to scramble to find another CPR class (and the money to pay for it) in order to be hired on time for my job. I called in order to get a refund only to be told that it would take 6-8 weeks to receive my refund and they seemed perplexed as to why I could not reschedule. I found another class that was shorter, cheaper, and I didn't have to pre pay in advance. After spending 5 years at Sac State, struggling to find work after graduation I was extremely disappointed that they would take so long to refund my money when there was little to no notice that the class was cancelled. I DO NOT recommend taking CPR classes here as instructors are unreliable and their refund policy is unacceptable. Go to NorCal EMT in Roseville for cheaper, reliable classes.
