This document provides guidance on safely transporting an injured person. It outlines key factors to consider like the victim's weight, injuries, and environment. When only one first aider is available for minor injuries, methods like the cradle carry, human crutch, or piggyback can be used. For major injuries or with two people, techniques like the four-handed seat, chair carry, or blanket drag are recommended. Proper body mechanics and reassuring the victim are important principles to follow. The document also includes an application section describing a practice activity to demonstrate different carrying techniques in groups.

2. Carrying and Transporting an Injured Person
• Transporting an injured person to a safer place requires great
care. A first aider must undergo proper training. When doing this,
a first aider must consider the following factors:
Weight and height of the victim.
Status of the victim (conscious or unconscious).
Environment (safe, floor is smooth, narrow or wide).
Special need considerations (injuries of the victims).
3. GENERAL PRINCIPLES
Reassure the casualty
and explain to him
what you are
planning to do
Seek for assistance
No more than one
leader should be
there to guide the
team.
Do not try to move a
seriously injured
victim alone when
assistance is
available.
4. CONT..
Maintain proper body
mechanics while moving the
victim.
1
Take immediate action to
transport the casualty to the
nearest health care agency.
2
Before transporting consider
the nature and severity of
injury, first aid already
provided, number of
assistants available and the
distance and route to be
covered

9. 2. HUMAN CRUTCH METHOD
First aider himself acts as a support to
the casualty
He stands close to the victim and holds
his waist.
He then keeps the casualty’s hand on his
neck and lift him with the other hand
and gives him support
Used only when the victim is conscious
and co-operative with only minor
wounds.
13. Piggy back method
Help the casualty to sit on a
chair or on a high place.
Bend before him and tell him
to fold his legs around your
waist and hands around the
shoulders.
Slowly lift him and rise from
the sitting position,
maintaining body mechanics.

15. BLANKET DRAG
The blanket drag can be used to move
a person who, due to the severity of
the injury, should not be lifted or
carried by one person alone.
Place the casualty in the supine
position on a blanket and pull the
blanket along the floor.
Always pull the casualty head first,
with the head and shoulders slightly
raised so that the head will not bump
against the floor.
19. FOUR HANDED SEAT
Both persons should stand behind the
casualty facing each other.
Now catch each other’s wrist ie. right
wrist with left wrist of other person and
vice versa.
After forming the seat, ask the casualty
to sit on it with both hands on the
shoulders and neck of each first aider.
Both should now take slow steps.
20.
21. CHAIR METHOD
The casualty is made to sit on a chair
and fasten him on the chair with a long
piece of cloth.
One person should stand in front and
the other person behind the casualty,
facing each other.
Now both the first aiders together carry
him slowly, ensuring the casualty does
not lean forward or fall down.
