The benefits of specialist seating within an Australian aged care facility were reviewed by Senior Occupational Therapists Julia Salmon (HospEquip) and Madelyne Glover (Hall and Prior Aged Care Group), using Direct Healthcare Group’s Kirton seating range. The objectives were to collect qualitative data to support clinical justification required for funding and to illustrate the benefits of and clinical rationale for different seating interventions.
The results have been published into the attached clinical poster and was recently presented at Occupational Therapy Australia’s 28th National Conference and Exhibition 2019.
