Now, in the UK, basically don't touch them, if it is cold and you have a blanket then throw that over them but don't touch. Firstly you might get sued if something can later be proved to have something to do with what you have done and it was wrong and secondly they seem to think these sort of things should only be done by professionals which in reality means paramedics. Sad but rue the best advice is to dial 999, give the details then walk away. Personally it goes against everything I have been taught and my own personal morals and I find it very difficult not to help but thats life I guess
Quillan this must be the biggest load of tosh I have read in a long time.
Can you give any references to people in the U.K being sued for trying to save a life. (other than mal-practice by the medical proffession)
