During which heat emergency do you cool the body by sprinkling him or her?

You should not sprinkle someone with water during a heat emergency. Cooling a person too quickly can cause shock. Applying cool water to the body can make it more difficult for the person to cool down from the inside. Instead, you should move the person to a cool place, remove their clothing, and fan their body. You can also give them cool drinks to help them lower their body temperature.
