Michigan SB0591 clarifies that health club staff are not obligated to use AEDs in emergencies.

Michigan SB0591 amends the Good Samaritan Act to clarify that health club owners, operators, or employees are not required to render emergency services using an AED (Automated External Defibrillator) available on the premises. This bill emphasizes that the existing Good Samaritan Act, which encourages individuals to assist in emergencies, remains unaffected. The amendment takes effect only if Senate Bill No. 590 of the 103rd Legislature is enacted into law.
