FRC Kits
MOB Recovery using the
Jason's Cradle FRC (Fast Rescue Craft) Kit
The FRC kit consists of a
Jason's Cradle with stowage bag and a fixing kit that enables the Cradle
to be deployed on both the port and starboard side as required.
Deployment of the Cradle
forms a non-collapsible scoop The FRC approaches the casualty slowly, keeping
them on the windward side and the casualty is guided in the Cradle headfirst
A strop is pulled to close
the loop. A co-ordinated and methodical lift takes place and the casualty
is retrieved by 'rolling' him over the tube into the rescue craft in the
medically preferred horizontal position Even with very heavy bodies
the lift takes just a few seconds due to the Cradle's 2 to 1 mechanical
advantage.
