What should you do if a child is unresponsive after a seizure, but breathing with no life-threatening injuries?

Placing the child in the recovery position after they become unresponsive following a seizure is the appropriate and correct action. The recovery position helps maintain an open airway, which is essential since the child is unresponsive but breathing. This position also facilitates drainage of any potential fluids from the mouth, reduces the risk of aspiration, and can help prevent choking. Timing the duration of the seizure can be important for healthcare providers to understand the situation better if any follow-up care is needed.

The other options do not prioritize the child's safety and well-being effectively. Activating EMS and performing CPR would be suitable actions if the child were not breathing, but since the child is breathing, this step is not necessary at this moment. Monitoring the child while keeping them on their back does not ensure the airway remains open, as they could potentially suffer from aspiration if fluids are present. Leaving the child unattended is unsafe; the child requires continual supervision until they fully regain awareness, as they could still face risks after the seizure.
