使用助行器（Walker）的核心原則是維持身體重心（Center of Gravity）並提供穩定支撐。正確的操作順序為：將助行器向前移動一小段距離，接著邁出患側肢體，最後邁出健側肢體。此方法能確保患側在助行器的支撐下減輕重量負荷，同時維持平衡。若操作順序錯誤，如將助行器推太遠或移動方式不當，皆會導致重心前傾，增加跌倒風險。
Safe use of a walker involves moving the device forward slightly and then advancing the affected leg first to ensure stability and proper weight distribution. This sequence maintains the client's center of gravity and provides support to the weaker limb during ambulation. Moving the walker too far ahead, holding it by the crossbar, or keeping it at the side compromises balance and increases the risk of falling.
