We will evaluate your ability to properly secure a patient to a long backboard during the assessment you will  have CCH assistant your patient's vitals are stable when you move the patient to the long backward I'd like you use both mine and the EMT assistance help you are in charge of ensuring proper directions that are given to your partners you may utilize any of the equipment shown before you and I'd like you to review that now BSI is my seat save the scene assay all right so the first thing I'm going to do is I'm going to direct my partner to come in and place the head in an inline neutral position and then I'm going to direct my partner to maintain c-spine stabilization.
 Once he's doing that I'm going to check CMS I have bilateral pulses can you squeeze my fingers for me awesome thank you tell me which is fingers I'm touching here okay and now I'm going to move down to the feet take the shoes off this espinal pulses and can you push down against my hands

Pulses, sensation and motor function are intact and all accompanies all right so the next thing we're going to do is we're going to put a c-collar on so i'll size my patient for a c-collar select my c-color and set it to the appropriate size p for my c-collar a little bit apply the c-collar ensuring that I'm not moving the neck around too much all right can you open your mouth a little bit for me perfect

All right now we have the seek alarm the next thing we're going to do is we're going to log-roll the patient and place around the board so I'll have my other assistant come in and help me with that so on the heads count we're going to roll the patient towards us and then I will check her back and then I will position the board and then on the heads count again we will roll her flat okay
