chosen.content: Good Samaritan laws cover a range of different acts or omissions which are done with the intention of helping another person. Generally, these laws create a legal duty to provide help for someone in danger or in need of medical attention, and provides civil protection from lawsuits, liability, and prosecution to those that step forward to provide aid. Laws vary from state to state, but generally a good Samaritan law provides legal protection for a person who provides assistance during an emergency situation, if the provider of aid acts in a reasonable and responsible manner. Good Samaritan laws may also cover actions such as making an emergency call, offering first aid, and calling for medical assistance. In some cases, a good Samaritan law will also waive criminal charges for illegal activities carried out in providing aid, as long as no violence or threats of violence are used.

rejected.content: A Good Samaritan law covers situations in which a person voluntarily provides aid or medical care to another person in an emergency situation, without being ordered to do so by a healthcare professional. Such laws typically protect the person who provided the aid from being sued if their action did not meet the standards of professional care. The law will typically allow the person to claim immunity from liability if it can be demonstrated that their action was prompted by a genuine effort to provide aid and was within their capacity to provide the aid. The law may also cover situations in which a person voluntarily transports an individual in need of care to a medical facility, although liability is still subject to the court's discretion. Some states may also extend immunity from lawsuits to people providing voluntary emergency care for injuries sustained in an accident.
