Abstract
An inflatable mattress is placed in a deflated state at a location a human corpse departed from life. The inflatable mattress may include two elongated chambers and one rectangular mattress chamber that supports the human corpse. The inflatable mattress may include one or more devices for coupling the human corpse to a top surface of the inflatable mattress. An inflation device coupled to the inflatable mattress is used to inflate the inflatable mattress to a selected height in less than about 2 minutes with the human corpse coupled to the inflatable mattress. The inflatable mattress is movable, with the human corpse coupled to the inflatable mattress, from the location the human corpse departed from life to a secondary location.
