The injured person may be lying down to minimize movement and prevent further injury. This position can help stabilize their condition, reduce pain, and allow for better blood flow. Additionally, lying down can make it easier for medical responders to assess and treat the injury.

Why must you always approach a casualty by their feet?

When you approach an injured person, it helps to keep them as calm as possible. You approach a person who is lying down by their feet so they can see you coming a good amount of time before you reach them and they can have time to assess if you're there to help them or not. If you approach them by their head, they can feel more threatened and can be startled especially if you come from behind them.
