In this day of litigation I was put in a situation which could have resulted in my prosecution
Whilst I can't comment on the Cabin Crew.
The above, sorry to say, is not true. Though not publicised, there is legislation in place that prevents good Samaritans being prosecuted in these cases, it also covers trained First Aiders.
The question came up at my last First Aid renewal and was answered as above.

Or as the instructor put it
How many First Aiders/Samatritans have been taken to court - NONE"
