Walker
On the Move with Walkers
A skill that helps people be independent is walking.For some, it is a natural progression through development. For others, they need help to achieve this skill. Walking requires independent standing and balance. If someone needs minimal to moderate assistance to achieve standing, a walker may be the solution to help them do that independently.
Basic walkers require that the individual hold onto the walker as they are taking steps. There are many variations of wheel types, wheel sizes, anti-reverse stoppers, and handle grips for these basic walkers. When someone needs more help, for instance forearm supports instead of just handles, the brands we offer have many accessories to choose from to give an extra amount of support in some area.
If the user is just learning to walk but is expected to achieve great gains, consider a product like the R82 Crocodile Gait Trainer. This Gait Trainer offers many support options that can be taken away as skills improve. It is can be more cost effective to purchase a Gait Trainer with multiple accessories that can be removed and tranisition the same base to a Walker. This is a good plan for a user that is expected to make significant gains in their ability to support themselves while walking. It is also a good option for a school or clinic setting where the same piece of equpiment would be used among different users with varying abilities.
