When moving an injured person a long distance with only one helper, prioritize the safety and stability of the injured individual. Use a sturdy, flat surface like a board or blanket to create a makeshift stretcher if possible. Communicate clearly with your helper to coordinate movements and ensure the injured person is supported properly. Always assess the situation carefully; if the injury is severe, it may be better to wait for professional medical assistance rather than risk further injury.
