Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Giving food and fluids is not recommended in the immediate care of someone who has had a stroke. It is important to maintain the person's airway and monitor their breathing. Giving food and fluids may interfere with this process and can lead to aspiration, or inhalation of food or fluid into the lungs, which can cause serious complications. The other options listed (positioning the person in the recovery position, raising the person's head without flexing the neck, and loosening tight clothing) are all appropriate steps to take in the basic emergency care of someone who has had a stroke.
