ABSTRACT:
A vest, particularly for emergency medical technicians, allows the technician's body to take at least some of the weight of a stretcher carried by the technician, possibly freeing one or both of the technician's hands. The vest has first and second nylon straps extending over its shoulders and attached to the body of the vest, and having adjustable stretcher handle attachments at the free ends of the straps, both in front of and in back of the vest. Horizontal straps of light reflective or luminescent material have closures at their ends and close the open front of the vest. The horizontal straps are adjustable to allow the vest to be tightened securely on the technician's body. A back support of elastic material which is stretched out when the vest is tightened is sewn at its ends to the inside of the vest adjacent the vest lapels.
