Versatility in adversity

<< Previous Page Bearers can evacuate casualties faster and with greater ease due to LESS’ lightweight construction and customised lifting equipment. Road access can quickly become impractical and evacuation by air may be required for critical injuries.  Helicopters can deliver large numbers of stretcher systems swiftly before extracting priority victims to intensive care units. Where spinal injuries are suspected it is critical to avoid further stretcher transfer of the patient until x-rayed; the LESS system is designed to override this problem. During all stages of evacuation, through to x-ray, casualties do not need to be transferred. By land, air or sea, the safe transport of casualties is aided by the systems’ minimal weight and rigid build.  At all stages casualties are thermally insulated. When every second counts, the quickest and safest response can make all the difference.
