Supporting Children Safely for Travel
October 26, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
Car travel can be exciting, providing us with a sense of freedom and access to our community and beyond! For children with disabilities and their families however, the right piece of equipment can be the difference between safe and unsafe access to vehicle transportation. Whilst “off the shelf” car seats provide some support for occupants, for children with less postural control this may be insufficient. This session will run through the vehicle transport considerations for children. Starting with an outline of a transport plan, we will identify the areas of focus required through age groups from 0 to 16. Once a transport plan has been identified we will then focus on solution considerations within the following areas of vehicle transport: Car Seats, Vehicle seat positioning, Transfers and Wheelchair access.
