The order in which a person (conscious) is placed on a backboard due to a suspected injury to the head, neck, or spine in the water is as follows:-

1. Rescuer 1 performs manual in-line stabilization until another rescuer arrives. Rescuer 2 enters the water, submerges the backboard and positions it under the victim in a manner that it extends slightly beyond the victim’s head.

2. Rescuer 2 elevates the backboard into place, after which both rescuers follow either the head splint technique or the head and chin support accordingly.

3. The rescuer who is not standing near the victim’s head places the victim on the backboard. The victim should be secured with a minimum of three straps-across the victim’s chest, hips and thighs.

4. After all the straps have been properly secured, the lifeguard secures the victim’s head to the backboard using a head immobilizer and a strap across the victim’s forehead.
