that each client be assessed by a registered health care pro-

fessional prior to the use of this sling for standing/walking.

Assessment of the individual should be carried out on a

regular basis. Clients must meet the following basic func-

tional criteria:

1) Trunk Control

2) Weight Bearing

3) Bridging

4) Quad Strength

5) Cognition/Predictability

6) Client should be able to, with minimal assistance,

achieve a sitting – standing.

function of the sling however, if to provide stability to cli-

ents being reintroduced to standing, weight-bearing and
