Stretchers

Sked®
Probably the best all round stretcher available. The stretcher is fabricated from a special plastic formula which allows it to be rolled for storage, but forms a rigid protective shell around the patient when deployed. It is suitable for use in confined space, high angle, technical rescue and traditional land based applications. The Sked® can be used to carry, haul or lift a patient vertically or horizontally and can be used for helicopter evacuations. The Sked® is available in different configurations depending on the users’ requirements.
