A very important thing for all First Aiders to know is the correct way to put an injured person into the recovery position. Another video from First Aid 4 All.
wrong! Persons should be placed on the left side. This is the correct side to prevent aspiration and also this is the side pregnant women must be placed on! It should be taught left!!! Only times you do right is if serious bleeding or bruising is on this side andn you place them on this side to prevent blood from covering both lungs. When in doubt though just think LEFT!
