Re: Heavy Patient Protocol



Wheather a stretcher is up or down should not effect the rating. What ever the weakest position is should be where its rated limit will apply.

Many stretchers are rated for 350 lbs or less. I have also seen some rated higher than that. But if you use a stretcher rated for 350 it would be a limiting factor Check your stretcher specs.

We are thinking about initiating a Heavy Patient Protocol.  Our risk management people have asked, are we the only ones to do this?  They do not want to be the first, or only program in the country to put something in writing.  Does anyone have limits, in writing?  Thank you for your time to respond...its very much appreciated.
