Junkin Aluminum Break-Apart Stretcher

When carrying out a rescue from a wilderness location, the Junkin Aluminum Break-Apart Stretcher can make the process much easier.  Falls are a great hazard when climbing mountains or even hiking, and the injuries sustained in a tumble can be serious.  Head and spinal injuries are common with falls, and transporting the patient without further aggravating the condition is very important.  As lifting and maneuvering someone who might have a broken back can cause further damage, it is good to realize that the Junkin Break-Apart Stretcher will permit the rescue team to get the stretcher beneath the patient with a minimum of disturbance.

The Junkin Break-Apart Stretcher comes apart in the middle, permitting paramedics to slide the halves under the injured party without lifting or rolling.  Three wide straps will secure the patient to the stretcher for safe transport from the possibly inaccessible location of the injured person.  The patient can even be x-rayed while on this stretcher, as it can be separated to allow for the procedure.  The Junkin Stretcher can be extended to 80 inches to accommodate nearly any patient and weighs only 21 ½ pounds.  Even though the Junkin Break-Apart Stretcher is lightweight, it can support patients up to 400 pounds.
