Are police officers required to provide emergency first aid?

In most jurisdictions, no. The decision of whether or not to provide first aid, as well as act on most other situations, is discretionary on the part of the officer. However, most police agencies place the preservation of life and rendering of aid very high in priority. An officer who had the opportunity to render first aid in the absence of someone more qualified, but did not do so, would probably be disciplined.
