I highly recommend First Step to anyone wanting to become an STNA or that needs it to enter into a nursing program. Albert & Juanita are both amazing people with years and years of experience in the fields of STNA, Nursing, Ocupational Therapy, Medical Management and much more. They use a holistic approach that encompasses the mind, body and soul. You will learn a lot from them, not only about the medical field, but about life in general.
