Good Samaritan laws are laws or acts protecting those who choose to serve
and tend to others who are injured or ill. They are intended to reduce
bystanders' hesitation to assist, for fear of being sued or prosecuted for
unintentional injury or wrongful death. In Canada, a good Samaritan doctrine
is a legal principle that prevents a rescuer who has voluntarily helped a
victim in distress from being successfully sued for 'wrongdoing'. Its
purpose is to keep people from being reluctant to help a stranger in need
for fear of legal repercussions should they make some mistake in treatment.[
1] Good Samaritan laws vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, as do their
interactions with various other legal principles, such as consent, parental
rights and the right to refuse treatment. Such laws generally do not apply
to medical professionals' or career emergency responders' on-the-job conduct
, but some extend protection to professional rescuers when they are acting
in a volunteer capacity.
The principles contained in good Samaritan laws more typically operate in
countries in which the foundation of the legal system is English Common Law,
such as Australia.[2] In many countries that use civil law as the
foundation for their legal systems, the same legal effect is more typically
achieved using a principle of duty to rescue.
Good Samaritan laws take their name from a parable told by Jesus commonly
referred to as the Parable of the Good Samaritan which is contained in Luke
10:25-37. It recounts the aid given by one traveler (from the area known as
Samaria) to another traveler of a different religious and ethnic background
who had been beaten and robbed by bandits.[3] | T***1 发帖数: 445 | |
