>> McNaughton Incorporated’s BUCKLE GUARD BELT BUCKLE COVER keeps patients safer while being transported on a stretcher.

Occasionally, patients will try to unbuckle themselves and risk falling to the ground or floor or endangering the EMS provider who is trying to help them. Buckle Guard Belt Buckle Cover adds that extra layer of protection by deterring them from opening the buckle. It provides just enough of a challenge to delay patients from unbuckling the restraints on the stretcher for a crew member to intervene and keep the patient safely secured, keeping both patients and crews safe. www.mcincdirect.com/EMS.
