Moving a loaded stander around a classroom or a lounge room is a two handed job, and there is not always an obvious place to hold. The helper’s handle gives the carer a proper grip on the Caribou for moving the frame and for tilting it.
That is a real manual handling gain. A carer pushing from a random part of the frame is working at an awkward angle and risking their back, while a fitted handle puts the force where the frame is designed to take it. Tilting the frame to bring a child into or out of standing becomes a controlled movement, which is better for the child as well.
It is a one size part and fits the Caribou range, so it can be added to a frame already in use.
