POSTURAL SEATING GUIDE

Maintaining a good posture in sitting is essential for people with multiple sclerosis to ensure that problems do not occur (e.g. contractures, pressure ulcers)

With this in mind, the TiMS Education Working Group are developing a small, practical notebook-style guide defining what are good and bad postures and identifying the problems which may occur if a good sitting position is not maintained.

It is hoped that the publication will include diagrammatic figures throughout to explain the correct sitting postures in various daily circumstances.

The booklet will be aimed at both formal and informal carers in the home and in the community.
