Patient's Cpr Board Place Long Short Backboard Patient

Front What should you use if you don't have a CPR board?
Back If you don't have one of these, you can place a long or short backboard under the patient on the strecher, and use a tightly rolled sheet or towel to raise the patient's shoulders 3" to 4", as this will keep the patient's head in a position of maximum backward tilt.
