Two Litters for Confined Space Extrication
Rigid stretchers and backboards are essential, but they have a major weakness. They do not bend around tight corners. The Kemp USA Premium Patient Carry Sheet, often called a soft stretcher or transfer flat, is built for moving non-ambulatory patients out of difficult environments. Whether navigating narrow stairwells, winding hallways, or cluttered interiors, this flexible litter wraps around the patient and maneuvers through spaces a cot cannot reach. It ships two sheets to a pack, enough to equip a primary unit and hold a second staged.
Constructed from heavy-duty black nylon, each carry sheet is engineered for strength with a 600 lb weight capacity. Reinforced handles run the perimeter, letting multiple rescuers share the load. That distributes weight evenly, reducing back injury risk for the crew and giving the patient a more stable ride.
Pack Configuration
Each pack contains two complete carry sheets.
Key Features
- High-Capacity Transport: Built to support up to 600 lbs, a reliable choice for bariatric transfers or moving heavy patients in emergency scenarios.
- Confined Space Maneuverability: Unlike rigid boards, the flexible nylon body bends to fit around tight corners, down spiral staircases, and through narrow door frames.
- Multi-Point Lifting: Multiple grab handles along the sides allow two, four, or six rescuers to lift simultaneously, maximizing stability and minimizing fatigue.
- Durable and Discreet: Easy-to-clean, abrasion-resistant nylon in a professional black that hides dirt and grime.
- Ultra-Compact Storage: At 4.4 lbs each, the sheet folds flat and fits into a jump bag, under a bench seat, or in a cabinet.
- Two Sheets Per Pack: Equip a primary unit and stage a second without a separate order.
Why It Matters
Lift assists and transfers are a leading cause of career-ending back injuries in EMS. This carry sheet changes the mechanics of the lift. Adding handles and letting more responders grab on reduces strain on any single person. It is the answer when the stair chair or gurney cannot reach the patient, and carrying two means a second crew is not waiting on the first to finish.
