Today I saw someone had some sort of attack in the middle of the street, no one knew what to do and everyone was staring, incluiding me. I dont want to feel useless again in a situation like that so i decided to do a first aid course, i saw that red course has some courses partially online but they are quite expensive for me. I also cannot find them pirated anywhere, if you know where to find the red cross or any other first aid course for free please let me know :)

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.
