This course provides an introduction to common postural presentations and the role they play in seating and positioning. Participants will explore how posture influences support needs and gain a better understanding of the seating assessment process, emphasizing why individualized recommendations should be guided by a comprehensive clinical evaluation rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Through photos, videos, and examples of common postural presentations, attendees will become more familiar with a variety of seating and positioning support strategies and how they may be used to address different postural and functional needs.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Understand the key components of a seating assessment and how they inform seating recommendations.
  • Recognize common postural presentations and relate them to potential seating, positioning, and functional considerations.
  • Explain how assessment findings influence postural support strategies and product selection.
