Buttons, zips, socks and shoes can become a daily struggle when hands are stiff or balance is unsteady. Our dressing assistance helps your loved one choose weather-appropriate clothes and dress and undress safely, while keeping their personal style and independence.
Benefits of dressing assistance at home
- Fewer falls while standing on one leg or bending
- Clothing that suits the weather and the day’s plans
- More independence, with help only where it is needed
- Less morning stress for the whole family
Who Dressing Assistance helps
Dressing assistance supports seniors with limited mobility, people with arthritis or after a stroke, and those living with dementia who may need cues to choose and put on clothing.
What a visit looks like
Your caregiver lays out choices, helps with difficult fastenings, supports balance while seated, and makes sure shoes and compression garments are on correctly before the day begins.
What’s included
- Choosing outfits for the day
- Help with buttons, zips and shoes
- Putting on and removing compression socks
- Changing into sleepwear at night
- Organizing closets and drawers
