If a victim is having a seizure in the water:

a. Immediately remove the victim to shallow water until the seizure ends, if the victim is in deep water

b. Support the victim with his or her head above water until the seizure ends.

c. Immediately get him or her out of the water.

d. Secure the victim onto a backboard.

Answer – b. Support the victim with his or her head above water until the seizure ends.

The selected option is considered to be the most appropriate answer for this question as it provides information regarding the measure that will be most effective in resolving the issue being faced by an individual in the mentioned situation. When an individual is having a seizure within water, the major step that can be implemented will be related to supporting their head so that the face is placed above the water. After this step, the individual needs to remove the person from water quickly and if the person is in a pool, the rescuer can remove him from water after the jerking stops. The rescuer can further aim to move the person towards a shallow part of a pool in which he was swimming by using the floatation devices and the support provided by others as well. However, if the person is in a surf, the rescuer needs to be immediately aimed at removing him from the water. After the person has been pulled out of the water, the rescuer needs to check whether the person is still breathing. CPR needs to be provided to the person on an immediate basis and thereby the ambulance needs to be called. The other options like “a. Immediately remove the victim to shallow water until the seizure ends, if the victim is in deep water” will not be able to solve the issue alone as other steps need to be combined with this activity. The two other options including “c. Immediately get him or her out of the water.” and “d. Secure the victim onto a backboard.” are not enough steps that can help the rescuer to solve the issues.
