Head Trauma - First Aid and Emergency Treatment Guide

I work in a nursing home. A patient recently fell [not witnessed] and he was found unconscious lying face down with blood coming out of his ear. 911 was called immediately. Should the patient be moved onto his back to assess breathing and airway before 911 arrives or should he be left lying prone? I LOOK forward to your answer. Thanks

in case of head injury when seizurs occurs/in seizurs give him left lateral position,so we can avoid aspiration of contents...from Dr.sachin khatake solapur,maharashtra,india

Lets say a motor cyclist putting on a helmet is involved in a motor vehicle accident, and you do not remove the helmet, how are you going to assess the injury? Also won't it be difficult to put a cervical collar and be uncomfortable for the patient.

Hoping to hear your advise soon.
