I had a great experience in the CNA program in Stratford, especially learning from Dr. Rama Sundaram, M.D., MPH. The instruction was supportive and easy to understand, and the hands-on lab training built my confidence. I now use many of the skills I learned in my day-to-day work, and the program inspired me to continue growing in the healthcare field. I highly recommend it to anyone starting their healthcare career.
