The Car Emergency Slide Board Kit provides a safe way to get an unconscious person out of a car. This kit makes a difficult manual handling task easier for the Emergency Department when a car arrives at a hospital with an unconscious person. Depending on the patient's condition and position, they can be slid out of the car either head or feet first.
Key Features
- Safe Working Load (SWL): Information relating to Safe Working Loads and plastic versus wooden slide boards.
- Flexible Design: The specially shaped flexible Slide Board can bend up to a trolley or down to the ground.
- Quick Evacuation: Reported evacuations in under one minute.
- Straps for Security: Straps can be fastened around the ankles, thighs, and waist of the patient.
Additional Information
It has been reported back to us that at one hospital a man was evacuated from a car in under one minute. The following week it took two minutes to evacuate a pregnant lady and get her safely out of the car. It took extra time as they had to be more careful handling two people.
Note: As this is considered an over-sized item, customers from outside of Australia should contact us before placing an order so that we can provide an accurate shipping cost.
