I was at work at a Fortune 500 company when an employee fainted. Several of his friends revived him and assisted him to his desk. He was having an anxiety attack. He asked a buddy to take him home where he had medication. Another employee took his blood pressure. He was driven home by two employees who waited around to make certain he was okay.
When management found out they went ballistic. All employees who assisted were written up. We were instructed that the only treatment for an employee in distress was to call 911. This included choking or anything you could name.
If I was the parent of the child that was reprimanded I’d be tempted to take out a newspaper advertisement
“Are you a nutcase looking for someone to kill? If so please consider Principal XXXXX at my son’s school. She has stated that she is opposed to bystanders intervening and you could whack her and get clean away. She is a Psychopaths dream. I will not pay you and am not asking you to do this but only stating that nobody would interfere”
