If someone has been shocked, there's a chance they may still be in contact with the source of the electricity. Do NOT touch the person or anything he or she is touching. You could become part of electricity's path and be shocked or even killed! Take these steps:
- Tell an adult to turn off the main power to the house.
- Call for a Doctor. Tell them it is an electrical accident.
- When the victim is not in contact with the source of electricity and you're sure there is no danger,tell an adult to give first aid for electrical injury.
- Don't touch burns, break blisters, or remove burned clothing. Electrical shock may cause burns inside the body, so be sure the person is taken to a doctor.
