Call for help

　　Call to get an ambulance as quickly as possible. This should be the first thing you do, especially if the sunstroke person has fainted (昏倒). Also, call for help from anyone nearby if you’re in a public place. If there’s no one around, call someone nearby if they can get there sooner than an ambulance. Ask everyone to bring you as much water as possible, if there isn?t much nearby.

　　Get the person to a cooler area

　　If there?s a building nearby, aim for that. Anywhere with plenty of air conditioners and water is perfect. If a building isn?t available, bring the person to a well­shaded area.

　　Get the water flowing

　　If the person is still conscious, get him or her to drink water. If there?s a bathtub available, fill it with cool water and put the person in it.

　　If your water supply is limited, you have to save it. Dampen a towel or shirt and put it on the person?s body. Focus on the face, neck, and chest.

　　Fan the person

　　Getting moving air over the person cools him or her down. Use anything, a towel or sheet, a shirt, your hands, or a piece of board. This is where having many people around really helps, as they can combine to fan the entire body.
