None that I know of, Mainly because as an EMT you have to be able to move quickly in and out of the ambulance. Along with being able to go up and down on your knees.

I am not trying to poke fun at you so don't take what I said the wrong way, I Just highly disbelieve there is an EMT in a wheel chair that is still performing full duties.

We (FD) responded for extrication, private EMS was already on the scene providing care. However, I reviewed the pics and I don't see the mistake. Can you be more specific. Note the hole on top of the board indicates the head area.

Thanks
