The usual shock position for a patient experiencing shock is to lay them flat on their back with their legs elevated about 12 inches. This position helps improve blood flow to vital organs by promoting venous return to the heart. Additionally, keeping the patient warm and monitoring their vital signs is essential while waiting for medical assistance. However, if there are signs of head, neck, or spine injuries, it may be necessary to avoid this position.
