“I had to take BLS for a class, and I am so happy I chose this one. It was a great comfortable learning environment, and I feel the knowledge learned will stick with me since it was very hands on. Definitely would recommend this, and plan to come back here when mine expires. :)”

“I took the ACLS skills training course with Moon Valley CPR and they were fabulous. I was provided with a 1 on 1 training session and given multiple scenarios to go through. My trainer was thorough, helpful and knowledgeable. They also allowed me to practice other skills using the manikins while there. Definitely would recommend”
