Why we know this works!
Why we know this works!
We love this dressing stick because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we watch people wrestle pants over their feet from the edge of the bed, morning after morning. How do you put on pants when you cannot bend down? You hook the waistband with the dressing stick, lower the pants to the floor, guide your feet through, and pull them up within reach of your hands, no bending required. The vinyl-coated hook grabs clothing and shoes, and the firm 27 inch wooden shaft pushes shoes off your heels better than a reacher can. It is one of the most affordable dressing tools we recommend.
This is especially important for people recovering from hip or knee replacement and anyone with back problems or arthritis that limits bending. If you also need to pick dropped items up off the floor, add a 24" Reacher/Grabber Tool, because the dressing stick hooks and pushes but does not grip.
