Down the rabbit hole. Sgoti talks about Good Samaritan laws. Tags: Good Samaritan laws, Duty to rescue Good Samaritan laws offer legal protection to people who give reasonable assistance to those who are, or whom they believe to be injured, ill, in peril, or otherwise incapacitated. The protection is intended to reduce bystanders' hesitation to assist, for fear of being sued or prosecuted for unintentional injury or wrongful death. A duty to rescue is a concept in tort law and criminal law that arises in a number of cases, describing a circumstance in which a party can be held liable for failing to come to the rescue of another party who could face potential injury or death without being rescued. The exact extent of the duty varies greatly between different jurisdictions. A duty to rescue arises where a person creates a hazardous situation. If another person then falls into peril because of this hazardous situation, the creator of the hazard – who may not necessarily have been a negligent tortfeasor – has a duty to rescue the individual in peril. Spouses have a duty to rescue each other in all U.S. jurisdictions. A tort is a civil wrong, other than breach of contract, that causes a claimant to suffer loss or harm, resulting in legal liability for the person who commits the tortious act. Tort law can be contrasted with criminal law, which deals with criminal wrongs that are punishable by the state. While criminal law aims to punish individuals who commit crimes, tort law aims to compensate individuals who suffer harm as a result of the actions of others. In common, civil, and mixed law jurisdictions alike, the main remedy available to plaintiffs under tort law is compensation in damages, or money. Title: Good Samaritan Law.

In this episode, we'll turn our attention to defenses in Tort Law, examining the strategies and arguments that can be used to counter tort claims. Picture a scenario where a property or homeowner owner is being sued for negligence after a guest tripped on a slightly uneven floorboard. The property owner might employ a defense to counter the claim, arguing that they took reasonable care to maintain the property. An illustrative case that exemplifies the use of defenses in Tort Law is "Assumption of Risk." In this case, a participant in an extreme sports event signed a waiver acknowledging the risks involved. The court had to determine if the participant assumed the risks associated with the activity, which could serve as a defense against a potential negligence claim. One notable case that highlights the importance of defenses in Tort Law is "Brown v. Smith." In this case, a defendant argued that the plaintiff's own negligence contributed significantly to the accident, presenting a comparative negligence defense. Let's engage in an interactive exercise to further understand these defenses. Consider a scenario where a doctor is being sued for medical malpractice after a surgery didn't go as planned. What defense might the doctor use, and how would it apply? Now let's look at the model answer. The doctor may use the defense of "Standard of Care." They would argue that they followed the established medical standards and procedures during the surgery, and the unfortunate outcome was a known risk associated with the procedure. To further enhance your understanding, let's engage in an interactive exercise. Consider a situation where a manufacturer is sued for a defective product, but they argue that the plaintiff misused the product, leading to the injury. Discuss the defense strategy and its elements. Now let's look at the model answer. The defense strategy involved in this scenario is "Product Misuse." The elements typically include demonstrating that the plaintiff used the product in a way that it was not intended or reasonably foreseeable, and this misuse was a substantial factor in causing the injury. Defenses in Tort Law play a crucial role in safeguarding individuals and entities from undue liability. Imagine a scenario where a homeowner is being sued for a slip and fall accident that occurred during a party they were hosting. The homeowner might invoke the defense of "Open and Obvious Danger," asserting that the hazard that caused the accident was clear and apparent, and the guest should have taken precautions. Let's imagine a situation where a property owner is sued for premises liability, but they claim that the injured party was trespassing at the time of the accident. Discuss the defense strategy and its elements. Now let's look at the model answer. The defense strategy in this scenario is "Trespasser Liability." The elements often include establishing that the injured party was indeed trespassing on the property, and the property owner did not owe the same duty of care as they would to a lawful visitor. Another noteworthy case involving the defense of "Good Samaritan Law" centers around a person who attempted to provide medical assistance at an accident scene. The court had to determine if the person was protected from liability under the law for their efforts to help. Now, for your final exercise in this episode, let's consider a scenario where a manufacturer is being sued for a product defect that led to injuries. What defense might the manufacturer use, and how would it apply? Now let's look at the model answer. The manufacturer may use the defense of "Product Misuse." They would argue that the product was used in a way that was not intended or recommended, which led to the injuries. This misuse could absolve the manufacturer of liability. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/law-school/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/law-school/support

The cover up of the actual circumstance surrounding the deaths of Diana, Dodi, and Henri Paul, went through several phases. In each phase, however, outright lies were peddled, to further the misinformation that the cause of death was a drunk-driving accident. In the immediate hours after the crash, most of the attention was focused on the paparazzi, nine of whom were arrested at the crash site on charges of manslaughter and violation of France's Good Samaritan Law, which requires passersby at an accident scene to render aid.Originally Broadcast On 03/03/2013

The man asked, “If I am to love my neighbor, who is my neighbor?” Jesus' answer was not just for the one who asked; His answer is for each of us. As you listen to Julie Jenkins' teaching on the Good Samaritan, will you take to heart God's words of wisdom for you? (Luke 10:25-37) ***** Welcome to Walking in the Word, the biblical teaching arm of the Women World Leaders podcast. I'm your host, Julie Jenkins. If this is your first time listening, welcome! We have three different podcast offerings for you each week, so make sure you check out each one every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. You have happened on Walking in the Word, where we take a few minutes each Wednesday to open our Bibles together and study God's Word. I grew up knowing Jesus, but for a long time I thought the Bible was meant for others. It was an honor in our church to stand up and read scripture, and my dad read to us from the Bible on special occasions, so I always assumed that you had to be credentialed to even open the sacred book. I'm not sure when my attitude changed, but when I became an adult and was feeling far from God, a friend suggested I read the Bible. My response was, I don't know how to read the Bible. In retrospect, that seems like a silly statement for someone who graduated from college with honors in the field of communications. I didn't see the irony. But per my friend's suggestion, I joined a Bible study, and I quickly questioned how I had ever gotten through life WITHOUT reading the Bible! The Bible is our guide for life, and it is meant for everyone! No matter where you are on your walk with Jesus, I encourage you to simply open the Bible and read it! If you are new to reading and studying the Word, a great place to begin are the gospels, specifically the book of John, which was written to tell of who Jesus is – the foundation of our Christian faith. On this study, we are currently walking through the gospels chronologically, combining the teachings of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John in order to get a more complete picture of Jesus' life on earth. I'm glad you've joined us! Before we begin, let's pray. Dear Most Holy God, We are intentionally taking time to pause our busy lives to spend time in your Word. Thank you for always being present and available. We confess that we do not recognize your presence nearly as much as we should, nor do we acknowledge what a miraculous gift you are to us. Please forgive us for our shortsightedness. Holy Spirit, we ask that you be with us as we read and study your Word today. Help us put everything else aside and cleanse our minds so we may focus solely on you. Allow our hearts to be opened so we may clearly hear your instruction and wisdom for each of us today. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen. If you have your Bibles, open with me to Luke chapter 10. Our reading today is Luke 10:25-37. Allow me to begin reading from the New Living Translation… 25 One day an expert in religious law stood up to test Jesus by asking him this question: “Teacher, what should I do to inherit eternal life?” 26 Jesus replied, “What does the law of Moses say? How do you read it?” 27 The man answered, “‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your strength, and all your mind.' And, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.'”[a] 28 “Right!” Jesus told him. “Do this and you will live!” Over the course of our study, we have seen many come to Jesus seeking answers. We've also seen many come to Jesus seeking to trip him up. Whether this man had an open heart to learn is not ours to judge. The fact is that the man was an expert in religious law, and the question he asked COULD have been meant as a trap. Jesus had told his followers that He would lead them to eternal life, but the Scripture available at the time, remember, stated that perfectly adhering to the Old Testament law would lead to eternal life. Instead of going on the defensive, Jesus met the man where he was by first asking what he knew. Oh how I love Jesus! He will always meet us where we are – without judgment! Sometimes His questions to us are difficult, and often, they make us think. In fact, if you have a truly open conversation with God, I guarantee you will walk away thinking – and you may walk away with even more questions than answers. It is often in contemplating the answers and meanings in the presence of the Holy Spirit that God grows us into His image over time. Sometimes, our growth is an arduous process, but it is always worth it! So the man asked… “Teacher, what should I do to inherit eternal life?” And Jesus responded…“What does the law of Moses say? How do you read it?” The man responded with part of the Shema, from Deueteronomy 6:5 – which the Jews recited daily. He knew the words by heart. He was to love the Lord God with all his heart, soul, strength, and mind. And, ‘Love his neighbor as himself.'” Where many scholars believe the man was trying to trip up Jesus was that he was showcasing that the law said nothing about following Jesus leading to eternal life. But, using scripture to interpret scripture, we understand that when you love God with your whole heart, soul, strength, and mind – the Holy Spirit will ensure that you will hear and have the opportunity to follow Jesus. So, as we've often seen, Jesus stepped over the intended stumbling stone with grace, agreeing with the man, saying …“Right!... Do this and you will live!” But though the man knew and could recite the words by heart, he had not allowed the words to infiltrate his heart. I wonder how many of us can relate? Actually, I don't wonder at all – because if we are honest – there are times that we ALL can relate. I myself have completed Bible studies just to complete them. Saying, “I made a commitment, and I'm going to push through.” I'm also ashamed to say that there are times when praying becomes an exercise for me rather than a true conversation with God. We must always fight against allowing a habit to become habitual and a commitment to God from becoming common. Stay true to your godly habits and commitments, but each day, ask God to open your heart and mind to what HE wants to tell you. The man may have truly been seeking, but it seems more likely that he was trying to limit his own responsibility…verse 29 29 The man wanted to justify his actions, so he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” 30 Jesus replied with a story: “A Jewish man was traveling from Jerusalem down to Jericho, and he was attacked by bandits. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him up, and left him half dead beside the road. 31 “By chance a priest came along. But when he saw the man lying there, he crossed to the other side of the road and passed him by. 32 A Temple assistant[b] walked over and looked at him lying there, but he also passed by on the other side. 33 “Then a despised Samaritan came along, and when he saw the man, he felt compassion for him. 34 Going over to him, the Samaritan soothed his wounds with olive oil and wine and bandaged them. Then he put the man on his own donkey and took him to an inn, where he took care of him. 35 The next day he handed the innkeeper two silver coins,[c] telling him, ‘Take care of this man. If his bill runs higher than this, I'll pay you the next time I'm here.' You most likely have heard this story before. Most people have. We even have a “Good Samaritan Law” in many parts of the United States that legally protects those who administer emergency care in good faith. But let's try to look at it with fresh eyes. A Jewish man was traveling from Jerusalem to Jericho – a seventeen-mile journey through dangerous country. The road was lined with caves where thieves would hide so they could jump upon unsuspecting victims at any time. Picture walking through a rough part of a big city late at night. You would be wise to keep your head down and walk quickly, not drawing any attention to yourself. Perhaps that's what the Jewish man was doing when he was jumped. He was mugged, beaten, and left for dead on the side of the road. And the thieves likely ran back to a cave to wait for another victim. A priest was traveling the same path, head down, merely trying to get where he was going. He sees the Jewish man left for dead and keeps walking. We don't know why. Perhaps he didn't want to bring attention to himself, putting himself in danger. All we know is he kept walking. And then a temple assistant came along. I wonder if he saw the priest ahead of him and followed his example of inaction. When we neglect to serve as God calls us to, we can be assured of one thing: someone is always watching and using us as an example or justification for not following God. Think about that. Your actions have a ripple effect. It can be fun to think that the positive we are doing in the world will have effects that we cannot even imagine – I often hear it said, “You won't know all the good you've done until you get to heaven.” That is so true – and positive reinforcement often inspires us to keep up the good fight. But the hard reality is that our negative actions, or lack of action, also gives OTHERS the justification to NOT ACT. Luke 12:48 tells us When someone has been given much, much will be required in return; and when someone has been entrusted with much, even more will be required. The priest was set apart as an example in the religious community, and what he did mattered. Others watched. He ignored the hurting man, giving others the justification to do the same. Finally, a Samaritan came by. I imagine the crowd gasped…or maybe groaned when Jesus said this. Jews and Samaritans hated each other, surely HE wouldn't help this man whom he had absolutely no loyalty towards. And yet, the listeners were surprised. The Samaritan man felt compassion. He went to the victim, soothed his wounds, and took him to a place of safety, even paying for his care. This Samaritan man probably feared for his own safety as much as the others did, but he recognized and loved the hurt man as a fellow human. This story just grips me. In this world of big government and judgment and claiming our own rights in society, how many times have I walked by a victim, not wanting to mess up my own day? How do I respond to the person from another country fleeing from a war-torn or gang-infested country? How do I treat the addict begging for money on the street? What compassion do I have for the child who lived a life of neglect and, now mentally unstable, lashes out in violent anger? These are NOT easy questions, and there is no easy answer, but that doesn't mean we should put our heads down and keep walking, ignoring the victims around us. Verse 36… 36 “Now which of these three would you say was a neighbor to the man who was attacked by bandits?” Jesus asked. 37 The man replied, “The one who showed him mercy.” Then Jesus said, “Yes, now go and do the same.” Go and do the same. Go and show mercy to the undeserving. Reach out to those who look like nothing can help. Cross the barrier of racism and hatred, offering compassion and care. Go and do the same. I don't know what that means for you. If I'm being honest, I don't know what it means for me. That is why we must search God's heart. We must lean on the Holy Spirit's wisdom. And when He calls us to a specific task, we must go obediently and immediately. There are those who are Big Brothers and Big Sisters – they make a lasting difference in a single life. There are women who rock babies who have been born with an addiction. There are prison ministries that reach the lost for Jesus. There are doctors and nurses who have fought through a pandemic, caring for one patient at a time. There are preschool teachers and daycare workers who make it possible for other moms to go to work to provide for their families. There are military personel who fight for freedom and equality. The list goes on and on. Not one of us can do it all, and we aren't called to. But we are EACH called to something. We EACH are called to make a difference, to make an impact, and to set an example. Make no mistake, God called you to this podcast for a reason. There is a hurting soul waiting on the side of the road for you. Don't keep your head down. Don't walk by. Don't justify your inaction. Remember… Go…and do the same. Let's pray… Dear Most Holy God! Your words are good, and your words are sometimes difficult to hear. Father, I know that many are walking away from this teaching with more questions than answers. There is no doubt you are calling each of us to show compassion to others, compassion for our neighbors who may not even look like us. Will you show each of us our exact calling for today? Please make it so clear that we don't even WANT to put our heads down and walk by. Give us eyes to see, hearts full of compassion, courage against fear, and excitement to follow your call in obedience. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.

Pesia's Kitchen in Israel Uses Rescued Food to Feed 1 Million Meals in 2021Gideon Ben Ami, the founder of Pesia's Kitchen, discusses shares their unbelievable success of providing 1 million meals in Israel with rescued food in 2021. As an entrepreneur who ran hotels and chains of restaurants, Gideon saw first-hand how food was wasted. Instead of retiring after his long and storied career, Gideon set his sights on ending hunger in Israel by rescuing unused food. Pesia's Kitchen feeds a million meals at the cost of .32 cents a meal. Partnering with large companies such as Google, Waze, and the like -- Gideon got these corporate kitchens to donate their unused meals. Further, Pesia's Kitchen works with Leket Israel to use the 'ugly fruit' in the fields to donate that to the poor thereby saving from rotting food causing more greenhouse gases to harm our earth. All this is seamlessly and inexpensively done through a simple network of volunteers. This business model can end hunger in Israel and for sure the entire world. The perfect opportunity: using a network of volunteers, rescue food that would have been tossed out and feed those who have none, and end hunger. Period. Join me for this inspiring story; it's the best almost twenty minutes you'll spend today.Please do three things: Subscribe to our podcast through your favorite platform.Share this episode with a few of your friends today.Visit our website at http://findinginspiration.lifeIn this episode we cover:I was hungry as a child. We had no food. The war on hunger certainly can be won. We have proven that. One-third of all food in western countries gets thrown away.Pesia's Kitchen is considered to be a food bank. People come to the bank, the bank doesn't come to your house. We want to prove a point about rescue food -- it's not costly if you adopt a model that works. There is a new law that says you cannot sue someone who's giving you food even if you have bad results from eating that food. It's called the Good Samaritan Law. It basically says you're trying to help somebody. You cannot turn around and sue them because they helped you in a way that hurts you inadvertently. It's been a joy to go to these corporate kitchens on a daily basis and see this fantastic food that's served to high salaried people. And two hours later the poor are eating the same meals. Let's take this food rescue model and share it with the world. Israel could be the first country in the world to end hunger -- with a simple plan.

Instead of retiring after his long and storied career, Gideon set his sights on ending hunger in Israel by rescuing unused food. Pesia's Kitchen feeds a million meals at the cost of .32 cents a meal. Partnering with large companies such as Google, Waze, and the like -- Gideon got these corporate kitchens to donate their unused meals. Further, Pesia's Kitchen works with Leket Israel to use the 'ugly fruit' in the fields to donate that to the poor thereby saving from rotting food causing more greenhouse gases to harm our earth. All this is seamlessly and inexpensively done through a simple network of volunteers. This business model can end hunger in Israel and for sure the entire world. The perfect opportunity: using a network of volunteers, rescue food that would have been tossed out and feed those who have none, and end hunger. Period.

We had no food. The war on hunger certainly can be won. We have proven that. One-third of all food in western countries gets thrown away.Pesia's Kitchen is considered to be a food bank. People come to the bank, the bank doesn't come to your house. We want to prove a point about rescue food -- it's not costly if you adopt a model that works. There is a new law that says you cannot sue someone who's giving you food even if you have bad results from eating that food. It's called the Good Samaritan Law. It basically says you're trying to help somebody. You cannot turn around and sue them because they helped you in a way that hurts you inadvertently. It's been a joy to go to these corporate kitchens on a daily basis and see this fantastic food that's served to high salaried people. And two hours later the poor are eating the same meals. Let's take this food rescue model and share it with the world. Israel could be the first country in the world to end hunger -- with a simple plan.

On this 11th episode of the Pursuit of Health podcast, Dr. Fethke is honored and excited to invite a dear friend and colleague, Steven Tannenbaum, Esq., to debunk the notion that doctors and lawyers are necessarily always adversaries. Our guest is a seasoned attorney with over 40 years of experience and a senior partner in Tannenbaum, Bellantone & Silver PC, a civil litigation law firm based in Lake Success, New York. He has been recognized as one of the Top Attorneys in North America, an honor bestowed to only a few American attorneys recognized for their degree of professional success and leadership. He additionally serves as a mediator and an arbitrator for National Arbitration and Mediation. He currently serves as National Vice-chair of Parent Heart Watch, the sole national voice dedicated to protecting youth from sudden cardiac arrest and preventable sudden cardiac death. He also serves as a Board of Directors Member of the Louis J. Acompora Memorial Foundation and the Dominic A. Murray 21 Memorial Foundation. He is a past board chair of the Sudden Cardiac Arrest Association. He is the 2010 recipient of the American Heart Association's Louis J. Acompora Memorial Heart Saver Award, the 2011 recipient of the American Heart Association Special Recognition Community Outreach Award, the 2012 recipient of the Sudden Cardiac Arrest Association's Chairman's Award, the 2013 recipient of the Dominic A. Murray 21 Memorial Foundation's Save a Child Award, the 2015 American Heart Association Heart Saver Award and the 2016 Parent Heart Watch Founder's Award. Mr. Tannenbaum is the rare teacher who can clearly explain such often misunderstood legal processes as Trial by Jury, Tort Law, Good Samaritan Law and the Medical Standard of Care. He shares his views on the proper use of these and other legalities involving healthcare, never losing sight of his role to serve others and uphold the legacy and fundamental nobility of the fields of Medicine and Law. He shares his very personal story as a grateful survivor of a sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) which occurred May 6, 2009. This experience led him to become an American Heart Association certified CPR/AED instructor, training more than 10,000 people to date. As an attorney, he remains passionate about the need to inform and empower everyone to prevent and treat SCA. He is a nationally recognized speaker and educator, appearing on television and radio to share his knowledge about CPR/AED usage. He explains how he has fought in several states to establish legal protections from liability through state and national Good Samaritan Laws. He explains the purpose of his work to assist in the drafting of legislation in several states to help save lives. Most notably, Mr. Tannenbaum finishes this wonderful session by advocating for equal and equitable justice for all under the law. He believes that our work is not done until both lawyers and physicians can ensure that all of the wonderful technologies and treatments of modern medicine are available to each and every one of us. In his eyes to do any less is paramount to committing a crime.

Catherine graduated high school at the top of her class in 2011 and, only six years later in 2017, her life was taken by an accidental overdose. She was a beautiful, intelligent, absolutely brilliant, complex human, according to her mother, Rose. Rose said she wants to share Catherine’s story and spread awareness on what can be done to prevent death in case of overdose so her daughter’s death is not in vain. She will fight for “The Good Samaritan Law”, already passed in many states, to be passed in her home state of Texas to protect individuals from prosecution at the time they call 911 or help someone who is overdosing. She has forgiven the person who dumped Catherine’s body in a remote alley without knowing for sure if she was dead or alive. But Rose says forgiving is not forgetting; it is remembering without anger. Rose has also started a Facebook page for her daughter called “For the Love of Catherine.” If you would like to tell your story about an overdose death, please contact Susan Claire at grievingoverdosedeath@gmail.com http://grievingoverdosedeath.libsyn.com/ Music provided by La Atlántida
Emily Harman, host of Onward Podcast, interviews Ginger Rosela, a mother of four who raised her children in Calvert County Maryland. She was a stay-at-home mother for most of the time during her children's’ lives and was a working mom when they were older. Ginger was involved in the Parent-Teacher Association, she was the Little League President, and her family home was known as “The Kool-Aid House”. Ginger’s family looked like any normal family. Substance use can affect any family. Ginger’s son was injured in a bicycle accident while in high school. His parents gave him his pain medicine as prescribed by the doctors. The doctors never told Jake’s parents the use of the pain medicine could become addictive. Ginger’s son Jake passed away from an overdose on July 19th 2013. Listen and learn about Jake and how Ginger provides families the support they need while their loved one is in crisis and helps families deal with the disease of addiction. Episode Highlights: Emily Harman introduces Ginger Rosela and shares some opioid statistics. Ginger shares the story of how her son Jake became addicted to heroin. Ginger and Emily discuss the dangers of drug addiction. Substance abuse affects the family and friends of the substance abuser. What does Ginger advise a family member who is hiding behind the shame of their family member’s substance abuse? You never know what is happening in someone else’s world. What is harm reduction? Ginger discusses opioid reversal drugs. Everybody deserves a happy, healthy life. What is the Good Samaritan Law and how did Ginger help get it passed? Ginger discusses her son Jake and the why she uses green hearts. What should you do if jewelry is missing or a suspected substance abuser is constantly asking for money? What is enabling vs. helping? When people are ready to get help, help is out there. Asking for help is a sign of strength. 3 Key Points: Addiction is not a choice it is a disease. We need to end the stigma associated with drug addiction. Education is key. Any type of substance abuse or mental health disorder is a family disease. It doesn’t just affect the one that is using the substance or has a mental illness. It affects the entire family and friends. Tweetable Quotes: “I made a vow when I did his (son Jake’s) eulogy at his funeral and I said that, Jake’s death would not be in vain. And the third words out of my mouth were that our son died of a heroin overdose.” – Ginger Rosela “I don’t think that we think about our elder generation that are in their 70s and 80s that take prescribed medicine and then forget that they took it and take it again and take it again.” – Ginger Rosela “We all should know that any type of substance abuse or any kind of mental health disorder is a family disease. It doesn’t just affect the one that is using the substance or has a mental illness. It affects the whole family and friends.” – Ginger Rosela Resources Mentioned: Linkedin: Ginger Rosela http://www.mdcoalition.org National Institute of Drug Abuse: https://www.drugabuse.gov/drugs-abuse/opioids/opioid-overdose-crisis The Good Samaritan Law in Maryland: https://health.maryland.gov/qahealth/substance-abuse/Pages/Good-Samaritan-Law.aspx Information on Narcan: https://www.narcan.com/ Maryland Coalition of Families: http://www.mdcoalition.org/ Contact Ginger: Grosela@mdcoalition.org – 443-510-7883 http://www.mdcoalition.org/get-help-now/list-of-family-navigators http://www.thebaynet.com/articles/1113/heroin-in-southern-maryland-the-brief-life-of-an-addict.html https://www.facebook.com/Advocates-For-a-Drug-Free-Calvert-County-Team-JAKE-1397061117213775/ https://www.wusa9.com/article/news/local/maryland/new-law-requires-naloxone-to-be-placed-in-all-maryland-schools/465535734 https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/Mother-of-Overdose-Victim-Celebrates-Signing-of-Maryland-Good-Samaritan-Law-258034591.html https://emilyharman.com https://www.facebook.com/Onward-Podcast https://www.instagram.com/onwardpodcast https://twitter.com/OnwardPodcast https://www.soulpajamas.com/home https://www.podcastpress.io/

This episode is a flashback to the last official episode Dee & Reesh recorded together in the same room back in 2013 and their guest was none other than Reesh’s younger sister, a Silicon Valley attorney affectionately referred to as "Legally Brown” and “Sisquire” by her older brother :) The episode discusses common Myths about Medical Malpractice, Evidence-Based Medicine vs. Anecdote-Based Medicine & whether or not the Good Samaritan Law actually applies to Doctors! We deliberately rebooted this timeless throwback to foreshadow a new series concept on Medicine ReMixed called “FLAW & DISORDERS,” where we talk to various lawyers in order to bridge the gap on so many fascinating topics involving both Medicine and Law in Popular Culture & Beyond.

011918 ICYMI - New WBTP, Good Samaritan Law, What Did You Want To Be Growing Up
The Good Samaritan Law goes into effect on September 13, 2016. Greg asks Representative Sprague about the law and what exactly it entails. “The law is addressing the issue of addiction in the state of Ohio. 8 out of 10 people that use narcotics, prescription pain pills or heroin, use with somebody else. While 8 out of 10 people that overdose, die alone,” says Rep. Sprague. “Overdosing takes time. Whoever is there with that person when they are using, if they don’t call 911, they are running. They don’t want to get in trouble. The Good Samaritan Law provides safety for individuals, so they won’t be prosecuted for minor drug possession. So they can call 911 and save somebody else’s life.”
