I'm sorry we had to laugh while watching because a person with autism is not going to usually cooperate. This wouldn't work. They try to stand on bed, leap from bed, scurry off bed, they would not be complying in any way as the average patient would. This video is definately not for every patient, but a good demo of basic principals of body mechanics.
Info is for general population who are able minded enough to try and follows which includes accident victims, injured folks especially the back or neck, senior population, physically dependent individuals! It ain’t only for autism , dementia and the like cos the world is diverse
