Great question!
The Good Samaritan Act in specific is what I'm referring to. As I understand it, we're granted the same protections as first responders under it but must relinquish control once someone with more ability arrives. So long as we stick to what we were trained on, no legal action can be taken.
That's the key to it though. The General Public has no formal training, and therefore less protection.
