Remove their lower clothes completely - including plastic pants if they wear those for extra protection. Gently push the teen’s knees chest-ward by applying pressure with your forearm behind the knees. Starting by helping the teen to the floor, to the changing table (if available), or to the bed (if changing in a room), where they will lay upon the underpad. However, for those teens with severely limited mobility or soiling accidents, this is the best option - and also, some teens prefer to be changed laying down because they are used from early childhood to have their diaper changed in this position. This option can make teens feel very vulnerable and potentially embarrassed because they are diapered like a baby in that position.
