Nessie
Inspired by Drive’s latest
addition to its early-inter-
vention, out-of-the-wheel-
chair positioning line comes in
colors called Seahorse Green, Pool Blue
and Mermaid Pink. Nessie is designed especially for children who are working on floor positioning at home or in clinic. It offers support
as kids are crawling, lying down (supine, prone or side), straddling or sitting in various positions; its arms can be widened or narrowed to achieve a number of different poses. Nessie comes in three sizes, and it’s constructed of open-cell memory foam that’s sealed inside a waterproof plastic liner. That means the cover and the liner can be easily spot cleaned or washed. Nessie’s fun colors and playful shape are designed to appeal to children as well as their families.
