Specialist seating is a cornerstone of postural care, supporting not only comfort but also safety, function, and quality of life. Yet despite its importance, it can often be under-recognised or misunderstood within health and social care practice. This presentation will explore the clinical, functional, and legal aspects of seating provision, linking the evidence base with practical decision-making. It will emphasise the reasons why specialist seating may be issued, the potential consequences of failing to provide appropriate seating, the need for clear and concise clinical justification, and the implications of the Care Act in shaping both clinical responsibility and service delivery.
