In the event of an emergency in a multi-storied facility that calls for vertical evacuation, the largest challenge facing hospital and healthcare facilities is the emergency evacuation of the patients and visitors. One of the premiere devices in the Emergency Preparedness field, the Med Sled is a cost efficient, no-lift device that allows staff members the ability to evacuate non-ambulatory individuals down the stairwells and out the building in the event of an emergency. In the event of a disaster, the portable Med Sled can quickly be taken to a patient anywhere in the building where he/she can be loading in less than one minute and evacuated down the stairwells using a tethered braking device for a smooth controlled descent. The Med Sled is currently being used in hospitals and nursing homes all over the country and by most of the US News & World Report's Top Hospitals.
