A Type V personal flotation device (PFD), specifically one designed for rescue or survival, is most effective for turning unconscious individuals face up in the water. These PFDs often feature built-in flotation bladders or special designs that help maintain the wearer’s position and orientation. Additionally, some Type I PFDs, which are inherently buoyant and designed for maximum flotation, can also assist in keeping an unconscious person upright in the water. Always ensure the PFD is properly fitted and rated for the intended use.
