LLC is determined to not only assist people with disabilities, but to aid
local, state, and federal governments in accommodating people with
disabilities in a safe manner, whether it is during everyday situations,
and/or emergencies. People with disabilities have different needs. Spinal
cord injuries require total body assistance when being transferred, where
an amputee may require minor assistance. Pakkie reduces pain and stress
for the person requiring assistance.
With the threat of terrorist attacks at an all-time
high, three major hurricanes (bringing floods, and tornados) hitting the
United States in matter of months, and wildfires out west, emergency
services provided by government agencies is being put to the test.

| The Pakkie can be used by:
- Fire Departments & EMS
What happens when you get in a situation where you cannot get a stretcher
up a tight and winding flight of stairs? The Pakkie will fix that problem.
What happens if you need to respond to a natural disaster, or terrorist
attack? An ambulance can only hold one, maybe two stretchers. But with the
Pakkie's small lightweight design you can easily store multiple Pakkies on
one ambulance.
- Schools
All schools are required to have emergency evacuation procedures for their
students with disabilities. It can become a school administrator’s
nightmare when a student with a disability is on the second floor when
there is a fire. The elevators are not functional so how do you get the
student to safety? This is where the Pakkie comes to the rescue. This
device is great for schools because it can easily be kept in a class room,
or a student’s locker.
These are just a few of the many examples of government
agencies that could benefit from the Pakkie Mobility and Rescue Sling.
