New Mexico

In New Mexico, CPR programs are expected to follow key practices such as maintaining equipment, providing training, ensuring medical oversight, and reporting incidents to stay compliant with state expectations. The state’s Good Samaritan law protects people who use CPR devices in emergencies. This protection doesn’t apply to doctors. To qualify, individuals must follow the rules. New Mexico sets operational standards for these programs. Yet, it doesn’t need CPR devices to be in specific spots.
