Ruth Lee™ Urban Search & Rescue Training Manikin

Designed specifically for Urban Search & Rescue (USAR) training but this manikin has many other applications. Now constructed in the same flame retardant Polyester used in Police ballistic/stab vests, which typically has 4 times the strength and abrasion resistance of 16oz canvas or P.V.C (the materials previously used) – making the manikins much stronger than before.

In our opinion our optional Shoutbox and hood fitted to any Ruth Lee Duty manikin is a far more versatile option than the USAR manikin and a fraction of the cost of the so called ‘smart dummies’ from Haagen or Bullex. You won’t always need the talking/recording facility of the shoutbox and if you damage the Haagen or Bullex offerings then you have lost a very expensive manikin. The optional hood can be fitted to any Ruth Lee model in seconds and if you don’t need the recording facility you don’t need to use it: use it on any Duty model, Multi-trauma, Bariatric, Patient Handling, Prisoner Security etc.
