Correct answer
No.
No. Do not independently give alcohol, medication, food or drink: they can worsen the casualty’s condition or complicate care. Protect the scene without exposing yourself, call 112 and follow its instructions. Alcohol is not a treatment for resuscitation or maintaining temperature. Professionals should guide treatment and medication; the question does not prevent following a specific emergency-service instruction.
