Question 4
Read the article about ways to help a victim who feels faint.
Fainting can be frightening thing, especially when you do not know why it is
happening or what to do. It is more frightening than serious, but do take
precautions. Here are ways you can take care of yourself or someone else it occurs.
To avoid injuries, try to stop the victim from falling to the ground. If the
person is standing upright, lay him down on the ground or sit him down on a couch.
Make sure it is not a chair without armrests. This will still allow the victim to fall off
it and cause injury.
Next, open the window or door to allow more air into the room. Another way
to help a person who feels faint is to get a cold compress and place it on the
forehead. Wrap the compress in a cloth before applying it.
When the victim recovers from the fainting spell, get the person back into an
upright sitting position slowly. Continue to give the victim support, even after they
are sitting upright. Dont allow him to walk immediately. If the person is conscious,
then give him some water. Dont let him gulp a mouthful of water. Make sure he
takes small sips at a time to prevent choking.
If you feel faint, you may be able to take these steps. If possible, lie down.
This can help prevent fainting as it allows blood to circulate to the brain. Dont let
yourself get dehydrated. Drink enough fluids, especially when your body is losing
more water due to sweating or being in a warm environment.
Finally, ensure there is good blood circulation. If you have to stand or sit for a
long time, periodically stretch your leg muscles. Also, cross your legs to help
improve blood flow to the heart and brain. Try to avoid overheated or cramped
