Basic first aid - let the trainer and coaches handle the issue
Medical Emergency - let the trainer and coaches handle it.
We are umpires, not medical personnel.
Exception:
If you are a medical technician, doctor or nurse and your State mandates that you must step in, then do so.
I understand that many of you are going to jump on this but please tell me how you are going to perform CPR in your plate gear? Bending over a victim with a West Vest and kneeling on shin guards?
