24-hour-support: Info video Learning objective: Correct response in the event of unconsciousness A prolonged loss of consciousness, for example for more than one minute, is an acute emer-gency! Provide first aid by carrying out the following steps: » Gently shake the person by the shoulder and ensure a safe environment. » Listen, look and feel, for a maximum of ten seconds, to see if the person is breathing. » If there is another person in the household, call loudly for help and draw attention to the situation. » If the person is breathing, place them in the recovery position. » Different techniques are possible here. » Remove restrictive clothing. » As a final step, extend the neck and open the person's mouth. Check that the mouth is positioned so that any blood, vomit or mucus can drain away. » Then dial the emergency services on 144 and continue to monitor the persons breathing. » Follow the emergency plan and stay with the person until the rescue team arrives. Inform relatives about the situation. » If necessary, measure blood pressure and pulse and document everything about the incident. If the person is not breathing, start resuscitation!
