Proper use of Long Spine Board pre-hospital

Friend of the blog Nick Williams sent a photo to me about Monday's commuter train derailment in Chicago that left over 30 injured.  It was upon closer inspection of the photo by KyeCommuteNBC that I almost spit beer onto the screen tonight.

Take a look at this photo for proof that long spine boards are an important tool in the pre-hospital setting.

Without that long board, someone could have been injured...
