Dressing Aids

Making Dressing Easier Every Day

Getting dressed is something most people do without thinking about it, but reduced mobility, arthritis, limited grip strength or reduced flexibility can make everyday clothing tasks much more challenging. Dressing aids can help reduce frustration while supporting greater independence during daily routines.

Many users find that small adaptations allow them to continue managing buttons, zips, shoes and clothing without relying as heavily on assistance from others.

Types Of Dressing Aids Available

Different dressing aids are designed to support different everyday tasks. Button hooks can help with fastening clothing, zip pullers can make zips easier to operate, while long-handled shoe horns can reduce the need to bend when putting on footwear.

Other products are designed to assist with socks, stockings and general dressing tasks where reach or hand strength may be limited.

What To Consider Before Buying

When comparing dressing aids, it is worth considering grip strength, range of movement, flexibility, ease of use, portability and which parts of the dressing process require the most support.

Many users find that combining several dressing aids can significantly improve independence during daily routines.
