can you be sued for assisting with cpr
First, whether or not you can be sued will vary depending on where you are and who you are. The 2000 Federal Cardiac Arrest Survival Act grants those who administer CPR or use an AED immunity from civil charges, except in instances of willful misconduct or gross negligence.ou will not be protected by Good Samaritan laws if you try to go outside your area of trainingâif you try to perform an impromptu tracheotomy to save a choking victim, for example, and you are not a trained surgeon.
