How to map a stretcher?

I would like to know how to map a Stretcher?

In Colombia, we should have them in public places, and it is hang on walls. Sometimes it is next to the first aid kid and fire extinguisher.

Something like this?

emergency=stretcher
support=wall
indoor=yes
access=public

stretcher=yes has been used 3 times, all in a US hospital, to say that you can use a stretcher on that footway.

Yes, I’d say emergency=stretcher is a good option!

My first impression was that the photos showed backboards so I had to go look up the difference between a backboard and a stretcher. Sorry for the digression.

Anyway, emergency=stretcher seems to fit the items reasonably well. You may want to look at the suggested additional tags for emergency=defibrillator and see if any of them are also appropriate. They tell things like how accessible they are, if they are indoors, etc.

In the second photo, what’s the “trolley” with wheels? Is it a wheelchair?

I don’t know, probably a wheelchair.

Probably an Escape chair - Wikipedia. It can also be used for normal transport (e.g. to go down stairs) if the injured person can sit upright, but can’t walk.
I might even hazard a guess that it is this model: Dönges Tragestuhl | Dönges or at least very similar. In any case, it is not really useful as a wheelchair.
