Providing First Aid in Colorado just got screwy. New law allows voluntary registration, but also places requirements on EMT’S & First Responders.

I’m not sure of the reasoning behind this law, it really does not do anything other than track EMT’s and “First Responders.”

House Bill 16-1034 was signed into law by the governor. I’ve attached a copy of the bill if you want to read it.

I’m not sure why the bill was needed.  Until things shake out, I would advise my clients not to register.  The only benefit to registering is you can say you are a registered EMT or registered first responder rather than saying you are an EMT or first responder?
