Volume V, Patient Packaging
Part 1
PATIENT PACKAGING delves into the very reason that rescue is different from recreation. If our intervention does not improve the patient’s condition, then we have failed as rescuers. Patient priorities and ways to deal with them in the vertical environment are discussed. The use of patient stabilization devices such as backboards, body splints and stretchers are demonstrated. This volume is taught at the BLS level and is important for all rescuers.
