At one point or another, every first responder arrives at a scene where someone needs to be lifted either out of harms way, or for medical attention.
Now, theres a tool on the market that makes that job easier than ever before.
The EVAC-Q-Sling is a new tool designed by first responders themselves.
It allows for the quick save lifting of a person, and can be used by anyone.
The EVAC-Q-Sling is a durable compact tool that folds up small enough to fit in any medical kit.
It protects a first responder from injury by distributing the weight of the person being lifted onto the forearms.
Its also a more comfortable way to move a person who needs help.
The EVAC-Q-Sling is the first tool on the market that folds up so small it actually fits into the pocket on cargo pants.
That makes it perfect for tactical teams and other first responders, especially when there is need to move an injured officer or victim away from danger quickly.
The EVAC-Q-Sling is safe and convenient to use, resulting in less injuries during a transfer.
The EVAC-Q-Sling can be used by two to four people.
It works whether a person is conscious or unconscious, sitting up or lying down.
You just tilt the individual to one side and place the EVAC-Q-Sling under them.
Make sure the BLACK 3 inch strap is under the persons thighs.
You then role or tilt the individual back to the other side and the EVAC-Q-Sling easily slides in place.
Place your hands through the straps and grip the outer straps of the EVAC-Q-Sling .
Using the straps to support the persons shoulder blades, place that person in a sitting position.
Then slide your arms through the front straps of the EVAC-Q-Sling and lock hands so the individuals head can rest on your forearms.
Use your legs to lift up to protect your back.
Just like that, you and your team are up and able to move the person easily, quickly and comfortably.
The EVAC-Q-Sling is also ideal for police officers who need to move or arrest a passive resistant protestor.
Using the EVAC-Q-Sling not only reduces the liability for a potential responder injury, it also reduced the chances for inappropriate contact claims against responding officers.
It creates a transfer thats more comfortable physically and mentally compared to traditional methods.
The EVAC-Q-Sling also makes life much easier in hospitals, physical therapy or assisted living facilities.
It can be used to move patients from beds into wheel chairs and up and down stairs.
The weight distribution makes it easy for just about anyone to take patients where they need to go.
The EVAC-Q-Sling is an essential tool needed to help evacuate, remove or transfer people in the field and in medical facilities.
However it is important to note, the EVAC-Q-Sling does not replace a backboard and should not be used when a neck or back injury is suspected.
It is also essential that it be used by trained individuals. But once trained with the EVAC-Q-Sling you will wonder how you ever did your job without it.
