How to Cool Someone Down Safely

source: google.com

  1. Move to a cool place: 


    Get the person indoors or into deep shade.


  2. Remove excess clothing: 


    Take off heavy jackets, shoes, and socks so air can reach their skin.


  3. Water Cooling


    • Try cold-water immersion: 


      If safe and possible, submerge the person in a cool bath or shallow pool (keeping their head out of the water).


    • Wet and fan the body: 


      If a tub is not available, spray or sponge them with cool water and fan them vigorously.


  4. Apply ice packs: 


    Place ice packs or cold, wet towels on their neck, armpits, and groin.


  5. Offer fluids slowly: 


    If the person is fully awake and alert, give them small sips of cool water or an electrolyte drink. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
