Case by case.
If the pt can walk and won't cause problems they walk out.
If the patient can't or shouldn't walk and there are stairs, the stair chair
If not bring stretcher into house.
If unconscious / cant sit up then supine on a scoop and try to manage. Buyt can be big problem if lots of stairs.
We do a lot of 'stay and play" and work arrests etc at scene until ROSC or other extenuating circumstances. I've never had to carry a supine pt on a scoop down more then a few stairs.
