Prone Standing Frames

A Prone Standing Frame supports a child from the front to achieve a standing position. A child is usually placed into a standing frame from a seated position or lying on their stomach to start with. In order to use a Prone Standing Frame a child must head good control of their head and reasonable control of their trunk. If a child has a gastrostomy or PEG a prone stander may not be the best option as this will likely put direct pressure onto these.
