The person knows the difference between being upright and moving, and lying down and resting. Both experiences are needed every day to maintain circadian rhythms.
When the person can stand up in ACL 2.0, letting them stand up using either a standing table or the assistance of two strong and competent carers is soothing and calming for them. The period will likely be only a few minutes at most. Watch out for signs of fatigue or pain. The provision of joint compression information can be very soothing and comforting for the person. Being able stand up tall and straight also aids digestive processes.
When the person can function within ACL 2.2, making a step is also a pleasant sensation. If they can weight bear, schedule this into their daily routine. (Refer to ACL 2.2).
In ACL 2.4, the person can walk but linear information is not well developed. They will walk in a poorly defined arc pattern. Provide the person with a large level space to walk in. Also provide a few large sturdy armchairs of good height for the person to plonk in when they are tired.
Keeping the person safe while providing them the movement information is needed in order to prevent troublesome behaviours like hollering. Meeting the person's needs for movement information will make it easier for carers to manage their self-care needs.
Forward propulsion is important. If the person is unable to weight-bear ensure they can spend time being pushed around in a wheelchair.
