Cool the body of a heatstroke victim immediately.

If possible, put him in cool water; wrap him in cool wet clothes; or sponge his skin with cool water, rubbing alcohol, ice, or cold packs.

Once the victim's temperature drops to about 101 F, you may lay him in the recovery position in a cool room.

If the temperature begins to rise again, you will need to repeat the cooling process.

If he/she is able to drink, you may give him some water.

Do not give a heatstroke victim any kind of medication.

You should watch for signs of shock while waiting for medical attention.
