I searched here w/o any luck. What is the "proper" execution of the Draw Sheet Method of moving a patient from bed to cot or vise versa?
Every partner I have ran with has done it where EMT1 (positioned with the cot between them and the patient bed) pulls toward the cot and EMT2 on the other side of the bed lifts up slightly or stands on the bed even.
I was taught both EMTs on the same side, cot between us and the patient bed, squat slightly and gently pull pt. toward me with a straight back. I would also like advice on how to correct improper tech. company wide w/o being a tattle-tale new guy.
Thanks
