Editor’s Note: Easy Stand, a manufacturer of standers, created this video, but it really is a wonderful, educational and unbiased piece on standing and standers.
“Small Steps to Standing Tall” is a Physical Therapist’s perspective on the steps to take to get children with disabilities standing and the importance of standing early. Stephenie Labandz, a school-based PT, is inspired to see some of her kids with Muscular Dystrophy propel the mobile standers that the EasyStand crew brings to her school! Includes tips on picking a stander, documentation, billing insurance, and alternative funding.
