Advantages
- Upright standing is a natural position with the head, hips, knees and ankles all in vertical alignment.
- When a child stands upright, they are likely to feel more balanced and are in an optimal position to allow strengthening of the neck muscles.
- The option to easily go from upright to supine encourages longer periods of standing, especially when loss of head control begins.
Custom fit
Modular design works for children who require minimal positioning and has options for those who require maximum positioning and support. Over 50 positioning and support options that help keep the most challenging cases safe, aligned and secure.
Positioning
Can do anterior tilt positioning, posterior tilt in space and a true full recline similar to positioning/activity chairs. Offers terrific pelvic support and stability by keeping the child positioned in the seat with knee pads, hip supports and lap belts. More position changes with fewer transfers means less lifting and decreased risk of injury for caregivers.
Feeding
Sitting upright is often not the best position for head control when feeding and partial or supine standing can be the answer. Provides many position options including sitting, tilt, recline and standing to find the optimal feeding position.
Suitable for home and school
The child can stand when others are standing, sit when they are sitting and use the stander under the same tables, up next to the white board or with other educational tools. Serves as a positioning, feeding or activity chair both in school and at home. Swing-away, angle adjustable tray is a perfect surface for work, play, communications, nutrition and sensory activities.
Promotes activity
Keeps the child moving and changing positions without additional transfers. Infinite positions can make activities easier and more comfortable. Being able to move the child into several different positions with one product can create opportunities for better health, cognitive growth and balance.
