22. Read the paragraph and identify its main purpose.* (1 Point)
In the past, exposure to liability made many doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals reluctant to stop and render
aid to victims in emergency situations, such as highway accidents. Almost all states have enacted a Good Samaritan law
that relieves medical professionals from liability for injury caused by their ordinary negligence in such circumstances.
Good Samaritan laws protect medical professionals only from liability for their ordinary negligence, not for injuries
caused by their gross negligence or reckless or intentional conduct. Most Good Samaritan laws protect licensed doctors
and nurses and laypersons who have been certified in CPR. Good Samaritan statutes generally do not protect laypersons
who are not trained in CPR - that is, they are liable for injuries caused by their ordinary negligence in rendering aid.
