Hmm...

Can anyone provide actual proof of someone in Australia being sued for providing help/first aid causing further injury (i.e. guy falls off his bike and you pull him out of the way of an oncoming truck, but his neck was broken and you didn't support it correctly / crack someones ribs performing CPR etc etc)?

When I went through my last bit of training, I was told no one had ever been sued.

Also, where is it written that you must provide assistance if you have training? I sure as hell won't be performing mouth to mouth on some drugged out loser or the like. Sure you will want to be a good human being and provide assistance where possible, but saying you will be sued if you don't is way over the top.

There is a hell of a lot of hear say in this. If you can be sued for not providing assistance or doing something wrong at the time, why the hell become a first aider?
