Yes, any turtle, whether from a pet store or not, needs a water heater. The water temperature, for most aquatic turtles, should be from 74-80 degrees Fahrenheit.

Not sure what you are asking here, broke as in not working? or broke as in pieces of glass are in the tank? If the heater is not working, you need to purchase a new heater.

How do you care for a painted turtle that almost drowned?
Well you have to have a UV Light, a Turtle Dock, a Filter, a Heater, and at the least a 10 gallon tank. You need 1 gallon per inch of turtle. I have two baby painted turtles and they eat "Baby Shrimp and Krill" and eat alot each day. You should get some plants and gravel to put in the tank too. Turtles love to swim, so in the summer you can build a little pond and let the turtle live there until late autumn. You need to leave the UV light on at least 6 hours a day.
