This is what I've been told throughout several first aid courses as well. Particularly in the US.

While 'Good Samaritan' laws exist, any half decent lawyer will tear them to shreds and your ass will wind up getting sued.

Honestly, a First Aid instructor specifically said not to provide First Aid to anyone in the US because its virtually SOP to sue the first person trying to help if anything goes wrong.
