When providing custom seating systems, successful outcomes are dependent upon proper execution of standardized procedures including: A thorough discussion of needs, detailed mat assessment, precise measurements, accurate installation of components, individualized fitting protocols, and follow up appointments for fine tuning. Seems easy enough, right? A missed opportunity at any of these steps can leave the recipient with unintended struggles. How do we move past obstacles that inevitably arise during the process? This course is designed to highlight my personal experiences of overcoming inadvertent errors, strategy changes and less than desired outcomes.
Learning Outcomes:
- Outline 3 elements of the assessment process that contribute to successful outcomes.
- Explain the difference between posture and postural tendencies.
- Describe possible solutions for improving outcomes at the time of delivery.
