How can one assist during a seizure apart from clearing the environment?

Assisting during a seizure involves several important steps to ensure the safety and well-being of the person experiencing the seizure. Ensuring head stabilization is crucial because during a seizure, an individual may fall or experience uncontrolled movements that could lead to injury, particularly to the head. By stabilizing the head, you can help prevent it from hitting hard surfaces or being subjected to harmful impacts, reducing the risk of further injury.

Additionally, head stabilization can also help ensure that the airway remains clear, contributing to the person's safety during and after the seizure. This support not only helps protect the individual physically but can also provide reassurance and stability while they are in this vulnerable state.

Other options, like providing food after the seizure, taking photographs, or recording video footage, do not contribute to immediate safety during the seizure itself and may even interfere with proper care or the person's dignity and comfort.
