Mobility Devices
Pediatric mobility devices are important tools that help a child to develop the physical skills of creeping, crawling, and even standing. They provide the abilities to stand, weight bear, shift, reach, turn, and function in ways that without such aids they would not be possible to do so and therefore be limited in their progression. We offer a variety of mobility devices to help you in your efforts to help others.
Pediatric mobility devices are part of an overall approach of helping young children with motor disabilities to develop physically and socially through aided independent participation in their natural environmental surroundings. These devices offer versatility to maximize the positive effects of independent mobility on a child’s social engagement and motor development by providing various levels of functioning to increase exploration and neuromuscular use.
Known as power mobility training, these devices are used as compensatory tools to achieve activity or participation goals for developing body functions and structures. It incorporates a holistic family-centered, context-focused therapeutic intervention for children with mobility impairments.
Pediatric Mobility Units include:
