What happened at WHL on Saturday evening got me thinking about something my tutor said whan I took the course (many years ago (9!)) about any medical incident you as a referee should leave well alone and let someone else deal with it.
Now where as a whole agree with this, I referee in places where an ambulance could take anywhere up to half an hour to arrive, now im no medical professional im merely a lifeguard, however I have trained in CPR for 7 years and feel I would be (in most circumstances) the most qualified person to deal with a cardiac arrest (or other serious incident, spinal) are there any new guideline as to whether I (we) should involve our selves in such incidents?
