Question

which of the following should you not do when treating someone who has fainted? encourage the person to lay flat for about 15 minutes. monitor the person for at least 20 minutes. continually shake the person to keep them alert. lower the person to the ground.

Explanation:

Shaking a fainted person can cause harm like injury to the neck or head and is not a recommended first - aid measure. When someone faints, the focus should be on ensuring their airway is clear and waiting for them to regain consciousness naturally.

Answer:

Continuously shake the person to keep them alert.
