FAQs about Autism Helmets
An autism helmet is a head protection device designed to safeguard individuals with autism, particularly those who exhibit behaviours such as head-banging or self-injury. These helmets are crafted to cushion the head and minimize the risk of injury during episodes of self-harming behaviour.
Our medical grade helmets are soft (not hard and rigid), lightweight, and filled with sandwiched foam, providing maximum head protection.
Determining if a child needs an helmet should involve consultation with healthcare professionals, such as a paediatrician, neurologist, or occupational therapist. Indicators that a helmet might be necessary include frequent episodes of head-banging, self-injury, or other behaviours that pose a significant risk of head injury. A thorough assessment of the child’s behaviour patterns, severity of self-injury, and overall safety needs should guide this decision.
