A BLANKET FOR ALL SEASONS
In wet weather conditions, the waterproof rescue blanket can be draped over gurneys, medical equipment and patients to keep them warm and dry. In hot weather, the rescue blanket can be suspended over a patient to provide shade and heat protection. In hypothermia situations the blanket may be wrapped around the patient with the shinny side in, to reflect body heat back to the patient.
