Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Mat exercises are a good stepping stone for developing core strength and improving posture, especially for individuals using a wheelchair. In addition, it provides an opportunity to practice fundamental positions and movement patterns that will aid in functional activities such as transfers and bed mobility.
Detailed explanation-2: -Calm the patient and loosen tight clothing. Do not move the patient unless in danger. Support head, neck and spine in a neutral position at all times to prevent twisting or bending movements. If the ambulance is delayed, apply a cervical collar, if trained to do so, to minimise neck movement.
