Additional Notes For Fainting
It's important to get medical care to figure out what brought on the fainting
episode and help prevent it from happening again.
What to Do
Have him or her lie down or sit down with the head between
the knees.
If your child has fainted:
Have him or her lie flat with feet slightly elevated. The
elevated feet allow for blood flow back to the brain. Don't move
the person if you think the fall might have caused an injury.
Think Prevention!
