True

Explanation:

Breach of the duty occurs when a person fails to perform his duties of care to act reasonably. In the case of a first aid provider, there is a breach of duty if after having been given necessary training to perform effectively, falls short of doing what should be done to give the patient the first line of medical attention required.

Different situations could suffer a breach of duty such as between a lawyer and a client. A breach of duty to a the client / patient puts them in a position of potential harm. Efficiency at work therefore, is very valuable to avoid exposing one's client to such unreasonable grounds.
