Helping People

I am an ambulance driver. Last week I could not reach the hospital on time and the patient that I had in my ambulance died. It was my mistake but due to traffic, we just could not make it on time. The family is harassing me by blaming me for the patient’s death. What can I do please help.

I had to use AED on a person when I found that he had a cardiac arrest. I know to use this device because my dad is a doctor and for educational purposes, he had taught me its usage and advantages. Can I land in any trouble for using AED on this person (I was just trying to help). This guy is doing fine now but I just want to be sure that I won’t face any trouble in future for helping a stranger.

My brother met with an accident and was helped by a person who was present at the scene of the accident. This person, who was apparently a doctor, gave some wrong medicines to my brother due to which he died the same day. All the medical reports say that, if my brother wasn’t given the medicines (given by this doctor) then my bro would have survived. Now this doctor is trying to save himself saying he was just acting like a Good Samaritan and is not responsible for my brother’s death. Will he get protection under the GS law of Hawaii?

Last week my brother fainted when we returning back after our family dinner. We asked a passerby to drop us home. He agreed to drop us only half way (from there I had to carry my brother to my house). He said that he had to rush home for something important. Having no other choice I accepted the little help I was getting. Can I file a case against this guy for being so unsympathetic at that time.

I am a doctor working at private hospital. Last week while I was driving to pick my daughter from school, I saw an old man lying unconscious on the street. I decided to help, gave him some first aid, and left when he felt a little better. Now is family has approached me saying I was negligent as a doctor as I did not take the patient to the hospital. Got to know that this guy later had a heart attack. Am I into any sort of trouble for helping this guy?
