What Local Healthcare Staff Say

Reviews from Downers Grove Healthcare Professionals

5.0 average from healthcare staff

“Our ICU department needed ACLS renewal for 19 nurses. They ran two sessions on consecutive evenings at Good Samaritan and got everyone certified without pulling anyone off the floor during day shift. Seamless.”

Nicole H., RN
ICU, Advocate Good Samaritan

“I have taken ACLS with multiple providers over 15 years. This was the best ACLS renewal I have ever attended. The instructor was an actual cardiac cath lab nurse who had run real codes. The post-arrest care section was outstanding.”

Dr. Patricia Lee
Cardiology, Downers Grove

“As a paramedic, I need ACLS every two years. Their Downers Grove evening class fits perfectly after my shift. Instructor was a fellow paramedic, scenarios were realistic, and I had my card before I walked out.”

Tom B., Paramedic
Downers Grove Fire Department
