Checklist: Testing and fitting
How to ensure the aid works for the user
Testing determines whether the device will ultimately be used or left in a drawer.
- 01Let the user put on the aid (or help as needed).
- 02Ask where it may pressure, chafe, or feel wrong.
- 03Look at fit and function: does the user stand walk or move better?
- 04Check for hard edges and pressure points, especially where skin is vulnerable.
- 05Adjust, grind and polish as needed – and try again.
- 06Confirm that the user is comfortable using it themselves.
