Air Ambulance Stretchers Services
The Airline Passenger Transfer Stretcher is a simple way to transport passengers who require additional medical attention due to an injury, illness, or other condition. For those who are unable to sit up straight and have to lay down for the duration of the flight, including landing and takeoff, due to injury, illness, or any other issue, in that scenario, FAA-approved aeroplane stretchers are an excellent choice. In these situations, the airline will arrange for the removal of a block of seats from the plane so that a stretcher for the patient and the necessary medical supplies can be installed in their place. Patients will be able to lie down during the flight.
The stretcher is used in the airport terminal and can be fitted with a raised sidebar and handrail for those who are ambulatory. When the stretcher is not in use, it folds flat and wheels into the aircraft’s cargo hold. The airline passenger transfer stretchers can be used with or without a seat belt restrainer (to improve comfort) or restraint straps that attach to either the armrests on the seat or the footrests on the seat (to provide stability).
