During which of the following drags is the patient’s head most likely to hit the ground?
  1. Shoulder drag
  2. Incline drag
  3. Firefighter’s drag
  4. Clothes drag
Explanation
Answer: C - During the firefighter’s drag, the patient’s head is most likely to hit the ground because the accepted practice is to keep the patient’s head as close to the ground as possible. The other three drags involve holding the patient in a way that supports the upper body so that the head is kept at a greater distance from the floor.
