There’s way to many people that would rather see a person die than believe they can be better

I'm not petty enough to take a charge for not administering help and not calling 911

Yes I’d do CPR. I’m a police officer. It happens all the time.

Depending on your state, many only legally require first responders/healthcare professionals to give aid to a stranger

That only applies if you are CPR certified not just knowing how to do CPR

CPR certified is MORE than just knowing how to do it so its applicable regardless 😭 you have no legal obligation and actually SHOULDNT give cpr especially if you arent actually certified bc if they can blame an injury on your cpr they can sue you to get money out of the incident its legally advised that if you arent a medical professional you do your civil duty of calling authorities and just stay with someone rather than interfere

I was almost going to add that bit about being sued but I second guessed myself. Some people also have DNR orders, and there’s no way to know that as a random Good Samaritan, but I think it can still apply.

usually "giving aid" in states where it is required can be as simple as calling 911
