Deanna is extremely knowledgeable and I've been returning to her to get CPR/First-aid recertification for years. I highly recommend her.
We’ve been using Deanna, CPR instructor ,for years at our office and I highly recommend her. Deanna is an excellent teacher who really knows how to break down the information so it’s easy to understand and remember. The way she explains both the “how” and the “why” behind CPR and emergency response makes the training much more meaningful and practical. She is always professional, patient, and willing to answer questions, making sure everyone feels confident with the skills before the class ends. Scheduling has always been easy thanks to her great availability, and the pricing is very reasonable compared to other options we’ve looked into. If you’re looking for CPR training that’s clear, thorough, affordable, and taught by someone who genuinely cares about their students learning the material, I highly recommend Staying Alive LLC.
Thank you.
A very well thought out program that balances lecture and hands on experience! Worth the time!
Deanna is extremely helpful and accommodating. She has always been willing to help coordinate schedules and very knowledgeable. She really knows her stuff!
Deanna is great to work with! I met her at the babysitting class she offered that my 10 and 12 year old daughters attended. I was so impressed with all that they learned and have been able to implement from the class. Then, I reached out to her to schedule an onsite CPR training for my church. It was easy to schedule and the pricing was excellent. She arrived early, brought a full professional set up and ran the class in a smooth and fun way that made learning easy. We will definitely be hiring her again for future renewals of our CPR certifications!
We are so grateful for the partnership we have with Deanna Young for our CPR/First Aid - BLS trainings. She has consistently demonstrated outstanding reliability, communication, and professionalism, ensuring that our staff remain compliant and confident in their skills. Over time, we’ve come to depend on her not only for her expertise, but also for the way she keeps us organized and on track with our training requirements. Her classes are always well-structured, engaging, and thorough, which makes a real difference for our team. We highly recommend her services to any organization looking for a trusted and dependable BLS provider.
Deanna is a passionate, knowledgeable and fun teacher! I took her certification course for CPR AED and Adult First aid. I brushed up on some skills and learned so many new ones. She has many great real-world-relatable scenarios and years of real experiences to share. The learning was comprehensive, understandable and memorable. Her rates are very fair for the instruction, course material and supplies offered. I feel more confident and empowered to face a situation if arises. I'm looking forward to taking other classes and certification courses she offers in the future. Highly recommend Staying Alive!
Deanna's First Aid and CPR class was so informative and helpful. I was a bit leery about my ability to perform CPR prior to the classes, even though I've been certified a few times before, but she made it clear and detailed and now I am so much more confident... Thank you, Deanna and Staying Alive!
My teen daughter has taken the babysitting course and recently completed the CPR course. We love the small personal class sizes with expert instruction. Highly recommend!
Deanna did a wonderful job in providing all her knowledge in this experience for our family of 6! Her teaching was informative and engaging! My children, ages 9-14 had many questions and she got on the floor with us and helped us with hands-on and made it fun for our family. We were so comfortable and felt confident in learning in our home and I loved the personalization she gave us. She made it an effort to know my children's names and explained scenarios with us that were helpful. I am a Girl Scout Leader and my leaders and I have gone through trainings with Deanna and our troop has in the past as well! I highly recommend Staying Alive and will use Deanna in the future!
The class was very informative. Deanna teaches in a very down to earth way. You are allowed to have questions and she is not irritated by it. Her real life situation and whit makes the class flow very easily. I believe she is able to teach people with all different learning styles….you have your visuals, hands on, and she articulates the material very well. I highly recommend
Deanna is the best CPR instructor I've ever had! The class was engaging and she truly teaches in a way that provides clarity and inspires confidence. I've taken multiple CPR classes throughout my life and this one is by far the best. I'd highly recommend that everyone gets certified through Deanna!
We've been using Deanna at Staying Alive LLC for years for our first aid and CPR classes. We need all of our employees and volunteers to be CPR and First Aid certified so it's so convenient that Deanna comes to us to do classes at our facility. We've been so impressed with the services she offers! She's quick to reply to scheduling and is always so helpful. She not only teaches the material well, she also helps apply the class to situations that we might encounter. She does a really good job of making the class material relatable so we actually retain the information. Thanks for years of great service, Deanna!!!
Deanna is the best! This is the 2nd time we’ve had her help us with our recertification and we wouldn’t want anyone else. She’s efficient with time, very knowledgeable, and always makes the class engaging.
CPR and First Aid training was great. Deanna has a wonderful personality and she kept the material relevant as well as entertaining. I would recommend Staying Alive LLC to anyone seeking this sort of training. I'm personally recommending Deanna to my church for training.
Deanna was amazing. She came to our business and did a First Aid class for our office. She was very informative and made sure she walked through all the steps. She even had us put bandages on each other. We really liked her attitude and her enthusiasm. In fact, we had to use our new skills to work on a customer that tore is skin in our office that same day. Thank you Deanna and we look forward to our CPR class....LF
Deanna was the best instructor I have ever had for my BLS training. She took the time to educate me individually, and answered all of my questions regarding skills. She is so knowledgeable about CPR and has a very kind and approachable personality that made me feel comfortable doing my skills in front of her. Best class and teacher ever!! You’ll learn lots of useful info!!
This class is so beneficial in so many ways! Deanna explains the material in a way that is straight to the point and she offers coaching during the training exercises. It is entertaining, informative, and nothing like a boring class where you're stuck reading the whole time. I leave feeling confident and knowledgeable in what I learned!
I will always go to Deanna she is very professional very clear or instructions. I always leave finding out new up to date information. She makes this class fun and very informative. Never a boring repetitive moment. Thank you for the services you provide in saving lives.
Deanna is a delight! I have taken her class twice and sought her out when I needed to do my recertification. I enjoy her teaching style! Her classes are very interactive and fun... the students are engaged and I will definitely seek her out again when my training expires. - Richie Black
