Computer systems a bit confusing, but the phone customer service was amazing!

Armando Rodríguez

Had a great experience, manikins were very good quality, support from Mica was impressive and helped me finish all 3 certifications BLS, ACLS and PALS seamlessly.

Great communication and instructions. Convenient locations all throughout AAC.

kalys

Very quick and easy! Lots of appointments and overall good experience. The manikin program gave good feedback and you could do it as many times as needed!

Anthony Woodyard

This is a great way to keep your BLS, ACLS, and PALS up-to-date! The site is conveniently located in Christiansburg just off of Depot Street. I completed the classroom portion online, and to my pleasant surprise, the course delivery was very good! The content was not cheesy or too lengthy. It was engaging and cut through the bologna, which I can appreciate! As for the skills assessment: very cool! I scheduled it online for a day and time that was convenient for me. They emailed the door codes for the front door and the actual office inside the building where the skills assessment takes place. I went in, logged into the computer, and it guided me every step of the way using the adult and infant manikins. I highly recommend Same Day CPR and will certainly be referring my colleagues!

Brandon Sigurdsson

Super quick and straight to the point! I learned so much.

rachel sommerville

So simple quick and easy!! Was in and out in the same day !

Bridget Wilson

Google maps was a little off on the location but the video they have posted on their website that shows the building/entrance and how to get to the room was extremely helpful. The set-up was nice, the feedback from the virtual instructor was helpful and the overall experience was great. Received my BLS e-card by email seconds after I completed the skills training.

Tom Connell

Made it relatively easy to get recertified on your own schedule with the hybrid model. The online portion is thorough and the hands-on testing is just you in a room by yourself using an adult and infant mannequin linked to a laptop that guides you through the steps. Like so many of these mannequins they can be a bit touchy in wanting you to be very precise with your hand location, compression depth and bagging squeeze so that it can throw off your rate a bit. You also MUST count your compressions exactly and stop at 30 or 15 as needed so the simulated onscreen partner gets their breaths in or you'll get dinged points. I highly recommend using the practice option and watching the screen until you get a good sense of how sensitive the system is. Same with getting a good seal on the masks. One minor nit is that for some reason it was very challenging to get the mouse to click on the right spot to either choose the practice option or the Continue option. It kept opening a Windows option to open in a new browser or other things. Not sure if the screen settings could be adjusted to make that easier. But once you get past that the whole process took under 30 minutes with repeated practices.

Joanna Granados

Absolutely loved this place!😛🤗

Alexis Carras

Fantastic experience-extremely well-run, instructions very clear and easy!

Tricia H

This was the first time that I completed a CPR class that was online with an unmanned skills station. I would do this again! It was very convenient to do the online portion at home. The training program was great. When you do the skills portion, the computer steps you through everything including the ability to practice before you test. The skills part was quick and easy and didn't involve waiting on a classroom of people to finish their skills. The CPR card was sent immediately via email.

Gary Terwilliger

Very informative training and the skills assessment helped me understand the proper technique and pressure to apply.

Amanda Hepinstall

This was soo simple and user friendly! And i didn’t have to sit through any 2 hour (or more) classes! I will be using this method more often!

Laila soliman

Very straight forward and easy to do on your own and not stressful at all!!

Arielle Shaver

Overall, this was a positive experience. Creating a password for the rqi website and same-day CPR was a little bit tricky and you have to do this to complete the online portion before going in person to do the skills test with the mannequins. I completed the BLS. I have had CPR and first aid training at least five other times in my life so it was pretty easy. It took me about an hour and a half to do the online portion. In person it took about 30 minutes or less.

Tammy Robertson

All I can say is awesome and I would tell everyone they should use sameday CPR.

wendy gerrity

Registering, taking the online training, and skills demonstration was very smooth! I had a question at one point, and spoke to someone live right away....support was fantastic. Highly recommend!

Gyula Takacs

Good experience but the equipment needs maintenance. The bag valve mask was worn out.

Andrea Erickson

Super easy process.

Nada

sohany cabrera

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a question about which course was the right course for me and both times, the staff was very helpful. I wasn’t sure if I’d like the online course version since I’ve only ever done it in the classroom before but after getting stuck in another state due to airline cancellations, it was great to be able to do the coursework while waiting for my rescheduled flight then take the skills test when I got back. Otherwise, I would not have been able to start my new job on time. The coursework site is not the most mobile friendly but it is doable! I’m sure it’s much easier on a laptop. It is well paced and informative and I felt prepared for my skills test. It was nice being in a room alone to be able to do it without feeling like you look ridiculous. The skills test was helpful and gave live feedback. The screen could be distracting at times since it shows a live metronome and I would begin to lose pace, but then I would redo it making sure to just be looking down at the manikin instead and it was way better (& more realistic!). Definitely recommend this to anyone needing certified and I am glad I was able to get this done down the street and a time convenient for me.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is by far the best place to renew your BLS, PALS, or ACLS. It is incredibly efficient and I will always recommend Bayside CPR!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a healthcare professional, Bayside CPR is always my first choice. I originally earned my BLS certification here many years ago as a student and have confidently returned for every renewal since. The same-day CPR certification process was incredibly easy and convenient—combining online eLearning with hands-on practice using the RQI manikin made everything clear, efficient, and stress-free. I highly recommend Bayside CPR for anyone looking for a seamless certification experience!
