Interesting. I was told if you start, you have to finish. But usually you are not required to start off duty.
If you are on duty, yes. If you are off duty, no

Hey guys- a woman 65-ish is laying down in the shade in a weird spot, like between two jumpy houses. Peole are there: shes talking, able to sit upright when requested, no complaints of pain or dizziness- a lay person ran off and got water and ice, all the mean time she is saying "im fine, im fine." I had told the son (adult) that if she gets cramps or starts acting a bit funny to take her in, first aid came shortly after. But not on duty, is "im fine" a refusal? Some he drank the ice water... First aid did end up calling 911 thank goodness.

I hope this makes sense...
hmm this is weird as a explorer i work at festivals and I'm somewhat trained and i am CPR certified. To me if the person says she is fine i guess she doesn't but yeah if she starts feeling sick or worse i would check her out!
