Best Answer

An unconscious person cannot willfully turn themselves over.

However, an unconscious patient should be placed on their side in the recovery position, provided there is no clinical evidence of a cervical spine injury that may compromise life. This position allows any vomit to clear from the patient's airway, and to avoid the tongue falling back and potentially causing an airway blockage.
