Rifton Dynamic Stander and Churchill booster with stay-put pommel (without headrest and chest vest)
Monday Davis and I drove to Knoxville for a clinic on special needs equipment. Several reps. were there along with a PT and the Orthopedic Dr. They quickly began looking and evaluating his wheelchair while the ortho. Dr. talked 90 miles a minute. As they moved, measured and weighed Davis I addressed my concerns.
#1 His wheelchair back and seat have gotten too small.
#1 His wheelchair back and seat have gotten too small.
#2. The stander we currently have (a Rabbit by Snug Seat ) is too small. He was 3 when we got it.
#3. What kind of car seat should he be in ? Davis is too big for a booster with a harness and likes to scoot down.
#4. Is his walker the right size? etc...
At the end of our session. This was our conclusion:
#1. Order a new seat and back for wheelchair
#2. New Blue Dynamic stander by Rifton (see attch. below)
#3. New Churchill Booster seat with pommel only and simply use the car seat belt (see attch. below) He doesn't need all the extra support offered.
#4. His walker is fine....
