What assistance should be provided to a person having a seizure?
Choose an answer to check yourself.
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Do not interfere; allow the seizure to end.
Explanation
During a seizure, do not hold the victim down or interfere; let the convulsions end. Trying to restrain the convulsions can cause injuries, and forcing the mouth open, holding the tongue or putting an object between the teeth can damage the teeth and mouth and block the airway.
