If someone vomits while unresponsive, quickly roll them into a recovery position so vomit can drain from the mouth and clear visible material, then reassess breathing and responsiveness. After a generalised seizure, once jerking stops, check breathing, place the casualty in the recovery position if breathing normally, protect their airway and monitor closely while arranging medical review.
