Collapsed against Toilet Door
This is covered over pages 36 - 39
As shown in picture’s 1-2, one handler checks on the casualty by
carefully looking over from the cubical next door.
After finding the casualty collapsed against the toilet door, unlock
the door as advised previously, then one handler kneels on the floor
to support the casualty, whilst another handler then lifts and slowly
removes the door.
As you can see in picture’s 3-4, one handler places the slide sheet
behind the casualty, then the handlers assist in lowering the
casualty onto the slide sheet while supporting his head and neck.
