To Carry the stretcher over rough or uneven ground
Attendants should lift the stretcher by grasping the stretcher frame at the corners. One
attendant at each end can often carry the body and stretcher for short distances over level
surfaces. Extreme weight, long distance or rough terrain may increase the number of
attendants required for safe movement.
Restraints
Each stretcher is equipped with three restraint straps that should be used at all times. Each
strap has loops so that they can be easily attached to the stretcher frame. Buckle the straps
across the chest, thighs and ankles to secure the body.
