Answer:

Protect them from injury by helping them to the floor and clearing away furniture or other items. Do not put anything in their mouth as it could lead to injury. Do not try to stop their movements. You may remove eyeglasses or other items that could cause injury. Time the seizure, call 9-1-1 if it lasts longer than 5 minutes. Reassure them and try to help them stay calm . Gently help them roll onto their side and push the angle of the jaw forward to assist with breathing,  this is the recovery position
