Lay the person flat on their back and raise their legs slightly to improve blood flow to the brain. Check their breathing—if they are breathing normally, loosen any tight clothing and ensure fresh air. Do not allow them to get up quickly. If unresponsive for more than a minute, call emergency services.
Avoid giving food or water until they’re fully awake. Fainting often results from low blood pressure, dehydration, or sudden stress. If it happens repeatedly, medical evaluation is necessary. After recovery, help them sit slowly and observe for further symptoms like dizziness or chest pain.
