JORDI HOME™ is a special needs stroller which is perfect both for therapy and recreation, as
well as other every day activities such as learning or having meals. The stroller can be used at
home, school, in the kindergarten or in a group of peers. JORDI HOME™ turns out to be an
indispensable tool in the rehabilitation process, both in terms of therapy and social
integration.
A solid construction and the regulation of the tilt-in-space function are the main advantages of
the stroller, which are especially appreciated by the therapists. The seat in the JORDI HOME™
stroller has an adjustable height, width and depth. The HexagonPro™ adjustable headrest
guarantees a correct and extremely comfortable head support. The 4-point safety vest
additionally enhances the comfort and protection of the user.
The JORDI HOME™ stroller is an ideal tool in the rehabilitation process with the standard
equipment, however, the wide range of accessories allows the stroller to be fully adjusted to
the individual needs of the user. The stroller is equipped with four swivel wheels with a brake,
which is why it moves quietly and is exceptionally maneuverable. The user’s feet are secured on
the adjustable footrest.

function of the seat.
6.5 Tilt-in-space function
fig.21 fig.22 fig.23
There is a risk that the chair can tilt back, which increases due to extreme equipment
settings (maximum backrest tilt/devation , maximum tilt-in-space function, wheel use). In
the case of hyperactive children or with a tendency to tilt back, it is recommended to use a
footrest and take extra precaution.

This cloth can be purchased in pharmacy or medical shops.
· mount additional equipment e.g. abduction block, tray.
· place user in the device,
· undo safety belts or vest so as to place easily the user is the device,
· unfold the device,
1. Before use it is necessary to:
· adjust the device to user's measurements,
· block brakes,
· make sure that all parts are serviceable, correctly mounted and stable,
· fasten all elements which stabilize user e.g. vest, safety belts,
7.2 PREPARATION OF THE STROLLER
Before the product is used, it is highly necessary to make sure that all belts as well as safety
equipment are correctly fastened as well as adjusted. What is more, check if they do not
become undone due to the pressure and, moreover, make sure that clampings from
adjustable elements are firmly tightened!
Incorrect product adjustment can lead to such side effects as fainting, body deformities,
joint overload, etc. If the abovementioned symptoms occur, stop using the product
immediately, take the user out of the product and lay them down. If the undesirable
symptoms persist, contact a physician immediately. If the symptoms have disappeared,
inform the attending physician about this fact in order to make a decision about the
further rehabilitation process.
Equipment works correctly only when the device is adjusted according to user's
measurements. Remember to take all these measurements into account while purchasing
the product. Correct adjustment is the most important due to the fact that only then the
product is safe. It is forbidden to force child to keep specific position because he/she will
feel uncomfortable and it may lead to wrong posture.

7.3 HOW TO USE VESTS
The vest provides posture support for wheelchair users as well as users sitting in
positioning chairs or other rehabilitation seats. When properly used, the vest allows
the user to adopt the correct sitting position for a longer period of time. The design and
shape of the vest make it possible for the user to be free to move their upper limbs
within the constraints of the user.
If the vest is not used properly, it can pose a serious threat to the health and life
of the user!
Possible threats incident to the use of the vest:
1) If the lower vest straps are fastened too loosely, there is a risk that the vest will move
upwards to the user's neck, making it difficult to breathe - always check the tension of
the straps and set them in such a way that the lower edge of the vest is located near the
lower abdomen of the user.
2) In a situation when the user slips off the seat, the upper edge of the vest cover's the
user's neck and blocks the trachea, making it difficult to breathe - it is therefore
necessary to ALWAYS use the accessories stabilizing the puser's pelvis, such as a pelvic
belt, thigh abduction belts or an abduction block.
3) There is a risk that the upper straps of the vest will press the user's neck, blocking the
trachea and making it difficult to breathe. This might happen if the user's body is
improperly secured in the seat or stroller - it is then necessary to use the optional
accessories of these devices and stabilize the user’s body using the lateral supports. If
there is no possibility to use such accessories with the device and the user's body cannot
be properly stabilized, the device should be replaced with the one having such an option.
4) The vest is fastened too tightly to the backrest and as a result the user cannot
breathe easily - in this case the vest should be loosened in such a way that it is possible for
the caregiver to insert a straightened hand between the vest and the user's body. If,
however, we want to stabilize the user's body properly, we should use a dynamic
orthopedic vest, e.g. Flex-Point® vest, which does not cause the breathing difficulty for
the user.

Instructions for the proper use of the vest:
1) Make sure that the user is sitting in the best possible position:
§in the middle of the seat,
§deeply in the seat in such a way that the user's lumbar spine rests against the backrest.
2) Secure the user's pelvis with, for example, a pelvic belt, thigh abduction belts or an
abduction block.
3) Make sure that the side supports of the device, if used, are set in the correct position. It is
required that the users with the poor trunk control use the side supports. The side supports
limit the lateral movements of the user's body, which could lead to the compression of the
vest straps on the neck of the user.
4) Secure the vest:
§fasten and adjust the lower straps of the vest, so that the lower edge of the vest is located
near the lower abdomen of the user,
§fasten the shoulder straps of the vest,
§fasten the horizontal strap of the vest (if present),
§make sure that you can insert a straightened hand between the vest and the user's body.
§make sure that the vest cannot move by itself towards the user's neck,
§check if the buckles of the vest do not open under pressure.
5) Check the user's position:
To prevent injuries and to minimize the risks associated with the use of the vest, the
following rules should be followed:
1) The position of the vest MUST be checked each time after putting the user in the seat.
2) Special attention should be paid to protecting the user from falling forward, slipping off
the seat or lifting the pelvis. The vest MUST be used with the accessories which will secure
the user's pelvis at all times (e.g. the pelvic belt, thigh abduction belts or the abduction
block). The use of the vest cannot be considered separately but as a part of a general
posture support system including supports such as pelvic belts, foot support, torso
stabilization, thigh abduction belts, tilt-in-space position and reclining backrest.
3) Special attention should be paid to ensuring that the entire foot of the user has stable
support. If the device is not equipped with a foot support, the user's feet must rest firmly
against the ground.
4) It should be remembered that any change of the inclination angle of the backrest, seat, foot
support or tilt-in-space function might affect the effectiveness of the belts and supports!
5) Special attention should be paid to the use of stabilization elements or sidesupports. If the
user has poor trunk control, the side supports will limit the lateral movements, which could
lead to the compression of the vest straps on the neck of the user.
