Important Information

The best way to avoid problems related to pressure injury is to understand their causes and your role in a 
skin management program.

All seats should be selected carefully. Working with your therapist, and physician is the best way to assure 
that a seat choice matches your individual needs. As the needs of the individual become more complex, the 
seat evaluation becomes more important.
