On theitem.tv, we give you the right solutions to ensure that you can live your life as independently as possible and with dignity and respect. Our items resolve issues and give you back control to always be ahead of the game to any condition that you may have developed. We have all had times where we could do with a little help with everyday tasks. Getting dressed each day can be one of these challenges, especially if you are trying to put on socks when you have an injury or illness that prevents you doing this without causing pain. So if you, or a loved one or the people that you support are waging a daily battle to get dressed, or maybe have given up entirely on wearing socks, a flexible sock and stocking aid could be the solution to ending this everyday frustration.
Simple and inexpensive dressing aid, the Foxy wide sock aid is a useful gadget to put socks or stockings on especially if bending or reaching your foot is difficult. The long cotton tapes makes it easy to use from a seated position, thus reducing the need to bend at the hip or knee especially post surgery
The sock puller is a strong, shaped, flexible plastic core. Wide enough to accommodate larger or swollen feet witho.ut stretching hosiery unnecessarily. A notch either side helps to hold hosiery in place while pulling up around the foot and leg.
Other features:
The long reins have hand loops which make it ideal for single handed users.
Sock helper is latex free and easy to maintain/wipe clean.
Easy to store, whether put in your underwear drawer or take it with you on your holiday, fits flat into a suitcase.
Brightly coloured for those with poor or limited eye sight
Suitable for all types of everyday casual socks, pop socks and panty hose but not suitable for compression therapy stockings.
Glenn Knight, CEO Training 2 CARE Group comments "I am 6 foot 4inches tall and played sports most of my life and therefor as I have got older I have had times when pain prevents me from doing simple things such as putting my socks on and therefor have sought help from others.There are so many conditions that would mean that we need that right tool to help do this with privacy and I believe that this item is amazing for anyone as and when the need arises. Home is the new hospital and I recognise that we have to supply items that can support any person to stay at home as long as possible without aggravating a pre-existing condition".
