To place a victim on their side correctly:

- move their arm on the side to be turned at right angles to their body and bend the elbow, with

the palm of their hand uppermost.

- place the back of the hand of the opposite arm against the ear of the victim on the first aider’s

side.

- keeping the hand in position, grasp the leg opposite the side onto which they are to be turned

behind the knee and bend it with the foot on the ground.

- gently roll the body by pulling the knee towards you, keeping the victim’s hand against their

ear.

- when the victim’s knee is on the ground, withdraw the hand from under the victim’s head

supporting their back so as not to move their head.

- adjust the position of the folded leg so that the thigh is at right angles to the body.

Open the victim’s mouth.

MISCELLANEOUS INJURIES

Do not move a victim unless there is a risk of a new accident. Sprains, dislocation, dislocated or

broken joints: immobilize the affected part.

Head injuries: talk to the victim and CALL A DOCTOR.
