See First Aid Tips On Fainting Below…

• If possible, try to prevent someone who is fainting from hitting the ground.
• Lay the person down on the ground, face up, and elevate his/her feet 8–12 inches.
• Loosen any constrictive clothing.
• Apply a cool, wet compress to the person’s forehead.
• Attempt to keep the person from standing up until fully recovered.
