Why we know this works
Why we know this works
We love this course because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we walk into homes every week and find walkers set at the wrong height or being carried around instead of leaned on. What is the right way to help someone use a walker? It depends on which of the two most common walker types they have, and this training teaches you the parts of each, how to guide your loved one safely, and how to protect your own back while you help.
It is especially important for family caregivers whose loved one just came home from the hospital or rehab with a walker and only got a rushed hallway lesson. If your loved one uses a wheelchair for most of their mobility, the Video Training: Wheelchairs is the better match for your day-to-day questions.
