The Neil Robertson StretcherNeil Robertson’s Naval service started in 1899 taking him across the world fromthe Outer Hebrides to Africa, and during World War 1 he was serving on HMSBlake. John Neil Robertson died at the age of 41 on 22 December 1914 and wasburied, with full Naval honours, in Plymouth, England.
The first Neil Robertson stretcher was made at some point between 1906 and1912. However, it is not known to what extent he contributed to it’s design. It isalmost certain that he was part of a long list of contributors including CaptainFitzherbert, Captain C.A.W. Hamilton and Fleet Surgeon I.M. McElwee.
Manufactured from high quality duck canvas and ramin slats, the Neil Robertsonstretcher has been widely used for 100 years.
The slats are stitched into the canvas to ensure both rigidity and casualtysecurity.
Ideal for casualty evacuation from confined spaces, or where vertical lifts onlycan be executed.
