1. Place a victim who is unconscious but breathing in the recovery position to keep the airway open. CAUTION: Do not place the victim in this position if you suspect a neck or back injury.

    

2. Support the victim's head, and roll him onto his stomach.

    

3. Bend the victim's arm and knee that are closest to you. The victim's face should be pointing toward you, too. The victim's other arm and leg should be straight.

    

4. Carefully tilt back the victim's head so the airway remains open.
