To check a casualty's level of consciousness, first assess their responsiveness by gently shaking their shoulders and asking if they can hear you. If they do not respond, you can use a sternum rub or pinch their earlobe to elicit a reaction. Observe their ability to follow simple commands, such as squeezing your hand or blinking. Record their response as alert, responsive to verbal stimuli, responsive to painful stimuli, or unresponsive.
