The aged simulation set is a teaching material intended to demonstrate the inconveniences felt by the aged due to the musculoskeletal, visual and auditory changes that occur with age. This set is the most suitable for medical care, nursing and welfare training.
Features
Adjusting the extensively placed hook-and-loop fasteners straps can enable the set to be worn by trainees of various physiques.
It is hard for the trainee to move the joints when wearing knee and elbow restrictors. The trainee can also experience reduced muscle power with wrist and ankle weights attached, and a reduced sense of touch by wearing the gloves.
A stooped posture can be experienced by wearing the back protector.
