  • Summary

  • When someone is unconscious, they’re at risk of airway blockage—even if they’re breathing. That’s where the recovery position comes in.

    In this episode of the First Aid Show Daily Minute Podcast, we explore: ✅ Why unconscious patients must be placed on their side ✅ How lying on their back can block the airway ✅ What the recovery position actually does ✅ A simple, step-by-step guide to putting someone into it ✅ When not to move the person—and when it’s critical that you do

    The recovery position isn’t just a first aid trick—it’s a lifesaving technique that protects the airway until help arrives.
