Select a Walker

 

For significant weight-bearing needs, when the choice is between a walker and crutches, evaluate the need for more stable support provided by a walker versus the versatility of crutches (such as on stairs). Because the walker is more stable and can stand by itself, older clients find this device easier to manage. When primary use is within a single-level home, the walker is a good choice, although fitting through doorways and bathrooms may present problems. Many current walker designs, of aluminum with adjustable-length legs, are foldable, allowing greater storage and portability than rigid models. 

Evaluate the home, work and recreation environment for accessibility. In tight bathrooms, for example, a standard walker prevents access and grab bars may need to be installed as alternative means of support. Certain  models are designed for use over the toilet; others are flared, allowing closer access to bedside, chair and commode.
