According to Portuguese law, your first actions must be to stop safely, secure the scene to prevent further accidents, signal the danger (using warning lights and a reflective triangle), and then call emergency services (112) before approaching any casualties.
To check for consciousness, gently tap or shake the casualty's shoulders (if safe to do so) and speak loudly, asking "Are you alright?" or "Can you hear me?". Observe any response, such as movement, blinking, or verbal reply.
The recovery position should be used for an unconscious casualty who is breathing normally. It helps to keep their airway open and prevents them from choking on their tongue or vomit.
Generally, you should not move a casualty unless there is immediate danger, such as fire, explosion, or other imminent risks that could further endanger their life. Moving a casualty unnecessarily can worsen injuries, especially to the spine.
No, you should never give food or drink to an unconscious casualty. They may choke, as their swallowing reflex might not be working properly, which could lead to serious complications.
