Standard Walker
A Standard Walker or walking frame is an assistive device to provide additional support to help an individual maintain balance or stability while walking.
Modern walkers are height adjustable and should be set at a height that is comfortable for the user, but will allow the user to maintain a slight bend in their arms for proper circulation through the arms.
The front two legs of the walker may or may not have wheels attached, depending on the strength and abilities of the person using it.
The person walks with the frame surrounding their front and sides and with their hands providing additional support by holding on to the top of the sides of the frame.
