Medical Backboards
Medical backboards are a vital ambulance supply, designed for patient safety and comfort and offering unique features that enhance versatility. Products like the Hartwell Medical CombiCarrier Backboard are buoyant, enabling use in emergency situations involving a waterborne victim. They are also X-ray translucent, so they don't interfere with a care provider's ability to diagnose internal injuries without disturbing the patient.
Professional Medical Backboards Designed for Patient Comfort, Versatility and Durability
Many medical backboards are designed to immobilize the patient and offer multiple hand slots to enable emergency response professionals to transport patients easily and securely. Medical backboard straps are vital accessories, designed for implementation with systems that don't offer the innate capability to immobilize the patient, or for use when extra restraint or support is needed during an emergency.
Along with medical backboards, body bags are another vital ambulance supply. Facilitating the efficient delivery of human remains to hospitals, crematoriums and other institutions, body bags preserve the dignity of the deceased individual and protect the public. They are available in both reusable and disposable formats, with specially designed products offering economy for mass casualty situations and durability for heavy-duty jobs. Many body bags come with unique features that facilitate post-mortem examinations, forensic investigation and photography for documentation purposes. Typically, each bag comes with its own tagging kit for easy patient identification.
