Recovery Position
After the return of spontaneous circulation and normal breathing after cardiopulmonary resuscitation, a person is placed into a recovery position while waiting for medical help. The victim is turn to his or her side – the unaffected side if the victim has an injury – with one arm above the head and one knee bent. This will prevent any aspiration in case of vomiting and promotes good circulation and respiration.
