This under arm wrist drag move requires a lot of strength and good ergonomic technique. Again, this move would only be used in an emergency. Place the person in a semi-sitting position. Move your hands under the arms of the patient and grasp the opposite wrists of the patient. Now, stand up slightly, lifting the patient's head and back off the ground, and walk backward, dragging the patient.
