CPR123-Long Island

Just passed my first ACLS course! I had taken my BLS at CPR 123 in the Queens location so was familiar with the organization. The advantage is that ACLS is a one day course here. My instructor David was extremely knowledgeable and was excellent at explaining all the information to make it easy to understand and uses great teaching strategies to foster memorization and ease of application. The women working the front desk were very friendly and helpful. Equipment is in good working condition. Breaks were given adequately. With my instructor, if you paid attention to everything he said and were actively engaged, you shouldn’t have any trouble passing! Just keep in mind, you should review a little before the class just to have a basic understanding of what is being taught and what to expect.

Unfortunately, codes are a common occurrence at my job, but regardless of how much experience I have, people need to renew their ACLS and BLS certifications every 2 years. Enter CPR123. Super pricey compared to the classes my hospital offers, but why do I love CPR123? Certifications, initial or renewal, are done within a day! The instructors are very thorough, and I love doing the mock codes in ACLS because they have up to date technology. The teachers let you take breaks every couple of hours, which is good because you need to refresh your mind. Parking is a little annoying as you have to park at the top of their garage and walk all the way down to enter the building.

CPR 123 is in their name, getting it was 123. I was at their LI site for my BLS training. I love the small classroom setting of 6 students, which allows everyone to practice the hands on technique numerous times. This set up is not imidating, very productive and left there comfortable/​confident with the skills. I’ve taken CPR training a few times prior in a bigger classroom setting and not once I left comfortable nor confident using it on anyone else other than the dummies. Thank you Konrad, he kept it simple and to the point. Oh yeah, free parking at the Mineola location，a HUGE plus.

Just took the ACLS refresher course at the Garden City/​Mineola location. Perfect beyond words. It was concise, to the point, and what I liked the most, it was a small class. No one got lost in a room filled with other providers. David the instructor was perfect. He made the course easy and without fear. No one felt inadequate to be team leader. I have been in the medical field for more than 20 years, and I have to say this was the first refresher class I actually walked away from with confidence. Thank you David.

I took the ACLS course at the Manhattan location yesterday, and it exceeded my expectations. I’ve taken BLS twice before through different organizations and didn’t find them too helpful, but Nemo’s ACLS class was engaging and interactive in a way that really helped me learn the material and think about it. I’m really glad I went with CPR123.

I found CPR123 the summer after I graduated from nursing school and needed to renew my BLS. I saw that they offered so many different courses and I also signed up for the ACLS and NRP to amp up my resume for an L&D position. They have a very flexible schedule and at different convenient locations. The instructors simplified the courses and are big on hands on learning, as adults that’s how we learn. I recommend CPR123 for anyone I know, and especially if you need to renew any certs in a short period of time. You can register for a class within days and have your certification on hand as soon as you finish your test.

I took an ACLS Course here and it was not what I expected. It was great! The instructor Mike was interesting and informative. Not only did we learn or review the material, but we had fun while doing it. I really enjoyed this class and the instructor so great, that I signed up for a PALS class with Mike. I recommend CPR 123 to anyone who needs to take any courses.

Just completed acls initial– 3÷7÷15
the instructor Terry was fantastic!
She kept the class engaged, interesting and gave salient points and facts to remember and how to recall this information. The day went quickly and examine was pain free. Would def refer a friend and return for recert.

I stumbled upon CPR123 almost two years ago, as my ACLS/​BLS card expired and I was in desperate need for an ACLS renewal. This was the first time taking the class outside of my hospital affiliated sites, but I am glad I did.
The class was efficient, well organized and fun. Furthermore, Nemo, the primary instructor at the Manhattan site, really makes this class fun filled with interesting scenarios and a lot of humor.
An additional plus, that unlike many hospitals, CPR123 offer classes regularly (weekly), which makes it easy to fit in our busy schedule on a short notice.
I am so pleased with CPR123, that I have become a loyal costumer and took my PALS with them as well and soon to be back for ACLS renewal.

Took PALS Monday 1÷13÷15. First time cert and was nervous about what to expect. Paramedic teaching class is amazing his name is Nemo. Content delivery is solid, not boring at all. With years of experience he brings a first hand perspective and much needed clarification of what to expect in each scenario. Highly recommended to my coworkers and friends. I will take any future required classes for work here.

renewed my BLS for healthcare provider this past Saturday. Second time using CPR123 for renewal. Instructor Mike was very engaging, and made the course fun. Manhattan location was convenient, and offers various times and days for courses offered. Totally worth renewing here.

The BLS Renewal for Healthcare Providers class was a very thorough and engaging class. The instructor, Konrad, did a phenomenal job with the course and «drilled» into us all the important parameters as well as the physical component. I would highly recommend this class to my fellow colleagues and would register again to renew in a few years.

Fantastic place. Very enjoyable. Instructor Nemo was the reason the class I took was awesome. I took a PALS class and I was dreading it prior to going and now I going to go back for when I am due for my recertification.

I love CPR123.
classes are plentiful and easy to register for online. Location on Long Island is easy to find and has parking readily available. I was very satisfied with my PALS course. Nemo was our instructor and he made the material interesting by using his experience in the field as an EMS. This was the best certification class I’ve ever taken. I’m having to register for another class and as usual, CPR123 has seats available. Like, tomorrow!

The BLS for Healthcare Providers course I took at CPR123’s Manhattan location was outstanding. Having been through other BLS certification classes before, I was expecting a rote recitation of technique and numbers, but Mike, our instructor kept the class entertaining, and lively. I fully intend to use CPR123 for any further certification needs I have.

I went there yesterday for BLS certification and we had Nemo as a teacher.
He was really great and to the point. I would definitely come back again for recertification and recommend this place to friends.

Love going here for my BLS, ACLS, and PALS classes. Instructors are great & make the class fun and easy. Nemo and Mike were both great!

I had to get my BLS and ACLS certifications for work and CPR123 made getting them a breeze. Both Sam (for BLS) and Nemo (for ACLS) are real-​world-​experienced, talented, engaging instructors that kept my ADD-​ish-​attention focused on the material. I learned and understood cardiology better from Nemo than from most of my medical school professors.
I was worried about passing the tests (especially the ACLS one after the difficult pre-​test!), but they made sure you knew what you needed to know. Great location in Midtown so that during a break, you had plenty of quick food options, as well as close proximity to a lot of subways. I liked that I was able to schedule online easily at the Manhattan location with the option to pick up the books at the class if you wanted. Getting your cards on the same day was also really convenient. I would recommend and return for my re-​certifications!

Let’s be honest — getting and maintaining these certifications is a pain, but CPR123 made the whole process as enjoyable as possible.
I did an ACLS renewal with Nemo and was completely satisfied with everything. This was my third renewal but somehow he presented the info in ways that made more sense to me than prior classes I’ve taken. The class was laid back but straight forward. The mega code was not stressful, and I was out of there early (you know you wanted to know!).
The price was reasonable, the facilities were really nice (in Manhattan office), and I feel more comfortable than ever with ACLS. Thanks Nemo!

I was nervous about taking this class and getting certified for ACLS. Just think about it, handling/​managing CODES! But Nemo made sure to put our minds at ease. He made learning so much fun. And one very important thing he made me understand was the difference between narrow and wide QRS. So no more guessing what strip I’m reading and what treatment course to take. Great instructors make all the difference. I plan to take the PALS but only if Nemo will be teaching the class.
Regarding the facility — it’s clean. The classrooms are orderly and equipments are up to date. The admin assistant was very nice and helpful.
