It's a blistering hot day, and you arrive at the scene to find a conscious patient suffering from heat exhaustion. What should you do for her?

Question

If heat exhaustion progresses to heat stroke, your patient's life may be in jeopardy. So don't let it progress. Move her to a cool place – either in the shade or air-conditioning – remove tight or heavy clothing, lay her down and elevate her legs. Then give her a cool non-alcohol non-caffeinated beverage and spray or fan her.
