I am fairly certain that we've stated this all along. Do what you can - help where you can. But even the untrained are protected under our Good Sam laws for trying to help - from CPR to the Heimlich manuever. If you can receive consent to offer help, all the better.
Even if you never use it on the field, emergency response training is still good to know for your family and loved ones. Who knows, maybe one of you will save a life and give all of us umpires a better name!
