Learn ACLS

Too much lecture and too little hands on

Did the home learning American Heart Association ACLS CD with these guys to recertify.
I picked up the CD from their office but they also ship.
Their front office folks are a little bit disaffected (seemed more interested in her nails than in helping me) but they got the job done. [Seriously, what is with the New York /​NJ office girls who ALWAYS act like it’s an imposition when you show up and they simply have to do their job? Manners, anyone?]
The training folks (the real ACLS part of things) were really good. I did the skills class at Manhattan Eye & Ear in the Upper East Side, but they have sites across NYC and in Westchester. Anyway, I learned a lot during the skills test, and it was low-​pressure, so definitely 2 thumbs up for that part.
I plan to recert with these guys again if I’m still around here in 2 years.

Eric and JD were AWESOME! I was in the weekend class that was filled, just about, with people whom were already medical/​health care professionals. Eric put three of us students in one group and was great! I was so nervous, but he really was great and I passed!
They’ve moved locations by now I think… but it’s worth checking them out. I paid out of pocket (nearly $ 300) and it was worth every penny. I didn’t want to wait to do this after I was hired and have my hospital pay for me… I wanted this on my resume :)
