Transporting • To transport a patient on the bariatric stretcher the antlers in the bariatric unit must be moved to the middle position. • Unscrew the knobs on the antlers • Move antlers to the secondary position (furthest position from cabinet) • Screw in the knobs back in (hand tight) to secure • Note: An EMPTY bariatric stretcher may be transported by any ambulance in the normal antler mount position.
Transporting • As a back-up to the locking bar, quick link straps must be wrapped around the stretcher frame and clipped onto the “D” rings in the ambulance floor (2 at front, 2 at back and 2 on side) • The stretcher sits in only one side of the atler so it must be strapped • Securing the stretcher at these points ensures little to no movement of the stretcher and prevents any risk of the stretcher falling out of the ambulance
Tips • NOTE: Please ensure that the antler mounts are well cleaned and maintained during deep cleans, so as to not have a problem in the event of an emergency!
SAFETY NOTE • NOTE: ALWAYS WATCH TO MAKE SURE THE SAFETY BAR GETS HOOKED ON THE YELLOW HOOK BEFORE REMOVING THE STRETCHER!!
