license exemption; basic first aid
Arizona's HB 2034 amends state law to explicitly exempt individuals from licensing requirements when providing uncompensated basic first aid in good faith. The bill defines "basic first aid" as actions like cleaning minor cuts, treating minor burns, applying bandages, or providing fluids for heat stress, including administering nonprescription pain relief for these specific injuries. It requires the provider to obtain consent from the injured person (or a parent/guardian for minors under 15) and to notify law enforcement if the injured person is under 15. This exemption directly affects bystanders, community members, or volunteers who assist injured individuals without charging for first aid services. The bill clarifies existing law rather than creating new requirements.
