Abstract
A strip of resistantly-resilient material is of a length such that its end portions overlap when encircled around a wearer's neck as a cervical collar. An intermediate lengthwise portion of the strip, positionable beneath the chin, is of increased width. A combination of fastener-part pairs, on different interior and exterior surfaces of end portions of the strip, serve to releasably fasten the collar in place. First and second pairs of straps are secured to the strip in the vicinity of opposite ends of the enlarged intermediate portion and extend around the head of the wearer to a location where the straps are detachably secured.
