Leckey Prone Stander - Size 1

Description

The Leckey Pronestander is a prone (forward-tilted) upright standing frame suitable for a child who needs support to stand but may not be able to tolerate a fully upright position.

Standing frames can be used for children who are unable to stand independently.

The Leckey Pronestander has a choice of five prone positions from 45° to 85°.

Inclusion Possibilities

• Can provide opportunities for children to participate independently with peers in experiences where children are standing
• Can be used for individual and/or group experiences
• Supports the child’s body allowing the upper limbs to be free
• Allows the child to see and access the environment at the same height as their peers when standing

Things to consider

• Use of standing frames should only occur for periods of time where the child’s peers are also standing
• Educators should consult with therapists and parents about the amount of time appropriate for use
• Educators need to plan how standing frames will be used in terms of staffing, routines and experiences within the care environment to maximise children’s participation in the program and interaction with peers
