This bill amends the Massachusetts General Laws to require emergency medical service (EMS) personnel to provide emergency treatment and transportation to veterinary care facilities for police dogs injured in the line of duty. It directs the Department of Public Health to develop policies and procedures for EMS personnel on handling and transporting injured police dogs, and it provides liability protections for EMS personnel who render aid to injured police dogs in good faith. The bill also adds the provision of care to an injured police dog by an EMS provider to the list of services that are exempt from civil liability under state law.
