Nessie
Inspired by Drive’s latest
addition to its early-intervention,
out-of-the-wheelchair
positioning line comes in
colors called Seahorse Green, Pool Blue
and Mermaid Pink. Nessie is designed especially for children who are
working on floor positioning at home or in clinic. It offers support
as kids are crawling, lying down (supine, prone or side), straddling
or sitting in various positions; its arms can be widened or narrowed
to achieve a number of different poses. Nessie comes in three sizes,
and it’s constructed of open-cell memory foam that’s sealed inside
a waterproof plastic liner. That means the cover and the liner can be
easily spot cleaned or washed. Nessie’s fun colors and playful shape
are designed to appeal to children as well as their families.

EaSyS Advantage
With 180° recline, face-to-face viewing direction, a
central release lever for tilt in space, and a seat
release for easy folding, the new EaSyS Advantage
is designed to provide maximum comfort for both
child and caregiver. A new brake assembly
optimizes safe handling, and the soft
suspension absorbs vibrations for an
extra-smooth ride. An extra-thick cushion
enhances comfort, and the seat/
back are fully adjustable without
requiring tools.
Kaye Products
Dynamic S3 & DS4
Designed for clients who do not develop
adequate balance, weight shift or postural
control to stand or walk unaided, Kaye’s
dynamic multi-positional standers allow
360° of movement within the base support
while the client is standing. The excursion of
movement of the stander is adjusted via a
spring-loaded crank, and range of movement
can be increased as clients develop confidence.
Resistance to movement can also be adjusted
so clients can work on postural control. The
standers enable clients to experience natural
weight shifts that occur when reaching or
performing self-care activities. The tray comes
standard.

Jenx Monkey Prone Stander
An early-intervention favorite, the Jenx Monkey
prone stander allows for a smooth progression
from a comfortable prone-on-elbows
position into an upright standing position, all
in one session. The Monkey — which recently
underwent an aesthetics upgrade — can
accommodate young children from 9 months
to 4 years old, and is designed for little ones
with good head control who will benefit from
standing. Tool-free adjustments make it easy
for caregivers to adjust positioning supports
as the child grows, and the Monkey’s compact
footprint fits right into school or home.

Stingray
Change the seat position from forward facing
to facing the caregiver — while the child is
seated! The new Stingray’s 180° swiveling
seat makes that possible, and that’s only
the start of the positioning features.
Stingray also offers up to 45° of tilt
and 170° of recline to support a range
of postural needs. The chair folds
compactly and features separate
base and seating modules.
Stingray is available in seven
color choices and in two sizes,
with a range of accessories to
customize each chair.

JUNIOR Cushions & Back Supports
Kids are not just miniature adults, which is why VARILITE used
anthropometric data to create its JUNIOR line of seat cushions

10x10" size using Air-Foam Floatation. Back supports come in Mid
or Deep configurations in
a 10" size that fits chairs
measuring 9" to 11". Backs

pediatric-specific VariLock
hardware.

ThevoSleepingStar A
The original ThevoSleepingStar support surface has wing suspensions
to provide tiny movement impulses that calm children as they are in
bed. The “active” A model additionally provides sensory support by
providing the movement for children who cannot supply movement
themselves. Choose Wave, Rotation, Inclined Plane or Static from the
movement “menu” to reduce
pressure, pain and spasms and
improve quality of sleep. The
quiet system ensures operation
without disturbing the child’s
rest.
