Actually, any “duty to assist” would have to absolve the assister of liability for any mistakes made.
It’s the reason why one shouldn’t perform CPR if not CURRENTLY certified to perform it.
Illinois has a Good Samaritan law.
L
good Samaritan laws do this.
That’s BS. If you know CPR and can administer it compentently then you should. Why would you let someone die because you do not have a government blessed piece of paper? Can you cite one instance were a Good Samaritan has been forced to pay damages for administering CPR?
Do I need to be certified in water rescue to save a drowning person? Do I need to be certified in using a fire extinguisher before using one?
I guess you would join the Chicago crowd and watch the person die even if you could save them via CPR?
