Pediatric Longboards

[MedicAsh]

Hey everyone,

I am looking into some different pediatric spine board for our rigs and I was wondering what you all use out there. We currently use the NyCanCo Pediatric Immobilization Board but it seems like the crew here doesn't like velcro (I sure do miss my spider straps). Any suggestions?

Why don't they like Velcro

I personally hate spider straps but for these two reasons

1. Crews just fold them up and put em in the ambulance and never disinfect them - OSHA would have loved my former service.

2. They SUCK to fold up

All of our backboards have the plasticy buckle straps for adults. That is what is favored by our service here.
