CLASSROOM COURSES OR ONLINE COURSES? WE HAVE BOTH
Classroom courses are much more personalized and involve many methods of teaching. An instructor in person will teach the same thing in many ways so that each and every student understand the concept. Practical classes are much more effective for this field of study.
Online Courses in the other hand, only requires few hours to complete but can help you save a life. The courses are much more easy to access and complete. You can take time to complete the course in your own pace. The only thing you need is willingness to learn.
Heart Start CPR offer both classroom courses and online courses according to your preferences. However, keeping in mind the nature and complexity of the courses, we only offer limited courses for online learning.
WHY HEART START CPR FOR EMERGENCY TRAINING?
Our on-site training includes CPR, ACLS, and PALS. American Heart Association BLS, CPR, ACLS, and PALS classes are also available. Our instructors are Firefighters, Paramedics, and EMTs. Heart Start CPR focuses on conducting small group classes with a personalized focus on instruction. The small group format and individual attention promote encouragement to the students to ask questions and interact in a non-threatening environment. This way we try to provide a stress-less environment to the students. Also, we provide extra time and attention to the students who require extra motivation. By our teaching method, we target a nearly 100% pass rate.

This is the first time we used Heart Start for our training. Guess what? We will use them again. David Y. the instructor made it simple for our organization to understand why we are training to help save lives. He's quite knowledgeable and uses "hands on" techniques and thinking to get you prepared.

Lisa was super great to work with and coordinate our needs. This is the second time we have worked with HeartStart to get all our docs re-certified. John is an amazing skills instructor and really made the skills testing fun and informative for everyone!!!

This is THE place to get your BLS ACLS PALS... it's where I've gone several times. There's no BS... they cut straight to the chase. The guys that work there are paramedics or fireman, so they have loads of real experience. They go over everything and make sure everyone is clear before they test you. They really make things a lot easier to understand. I prefer going to their 2 day courses rather than doing it online, because you learn so much more! They also answer the phone and emails quickly and can squeeze you into classes if you need it! They're very nice and understanding. Prices are reasonable too. They also have a Kurig coffee machine and provide some snacks!!! Being in the healthcare industry, I need to have my certifications up to date and I'm really glad I can count on these guys. Five stars all the way!!!

Have taken initial and recert courses with HeartStart for several years now, and cannot recommend them enough!! All of the instructors are wonderful - super friendly, approachable, and very knowledgeable!! Even though I can take the classes for free through the hospital I work at, I prefer to pay for the fun & relaxed learning environment. No one wants to be stressed out, during a required course; and HeartStart makes sure everyone learns the material, and gets the necessary support and reinforcement, if they need it! Keep up the great work!!

Very pleased with Heart Start CPR. I just renewed my PALS certification and felt very comfortable in the class. The instructor helped everyone feel calm. It was a low stress environment while practicing our skills and reviewing all of the information needed for recertification. I will definitely go here in the future.

I did the ACLS/PALS course as a nursing student. The instructor, Andrew, is great! Very patient and knowledgeable about the material. I would definitely recommend signing up!

Thank you, Heart Start, for your excellent CPR renewal class at our outpatient surgery center. Ray was a very knowledgeable instructor who provided us with a stress free learning environment in which to refresh our CPR skills. I highly recommend them for your staff recertification and will plan to use them again.
