People trained in CPR have a duty to help..Frank is correct in saying The Good Samaritan laws protect people who are willing to help from being sued, providing they act within their scope of training..

So many senior citizens and no AED's..That is absurd! I believe the time has come and the population has increased so much, it is time to take a stand on AED's and training..

I am sure a CPR/AED class would be filled in no time, and every one would benefit..

I have been involved in EMS since the early 70's..I responded to quite a few accidents while in TV..I am not afraid of being sued because I am a Medic in Pa...I have a duty to respond..
