Why It Matters
Stretcher Injuries Are Preventable
Stretcher-related injuries are a leading cause of EMS provider injuries. Back strains, shoulder injuries, and dropped stretchers put providers out of work and put patients at risk.
The data is clear: proper training dramatically reduces these injuries. Yet most departments offer little to no formal stretcher safety education.
That's why we made this course free. Every EMS provider deserves access to evidence-based stretcher safety training \u2014 regardless of budget.
