PLACING THE CHILD IN
THE STANDER:
1.
Always lock all four casters before putting the child in
the stander. This is done by stepping on the lock lever on
each castor.
2.
The child's therapist should identify whether or not one
or two people should be required for the standing
transfer.
3.
Placing the child's feet on the foot supports, slowly lift
him/her into the stander, fastening the hip straps first,
then the trunk straps. After checking for proper
alignment and weight bearing, fasten the buckle straps
on the hip and trunk supports, the foot supports, and the
knee straps.
4.
The child should be directly supervised at all times.
5.
Provide a table or socialization activity while the child is
standing.
6.
Observe the child closely for signs of fatigue, distress, or
discomfort, and remove the child within the prescribed
period.
