More Details
. Rest seats vary in shape, material, weight and number of legs.
. The seat is usually quite small so does not provide much support - it should only be used for short periods.
. Some people may need assistance to stand up from the rest seat.
. Sufficient hand function is needed to carry, open and close the rest seat, and the user must be able to stand unsupported whilst doing this.
. The seat should only be used on level ground.
Choosing the right size
. The height of the seat must be suitable for the user - their feet should touch the ground when seated, and the seat should be high enough so they can get back up to standing easily.
