What is the Sock Aid?
The Sock Aid from Homecraft will help to pull up your socks or stockings when you have difficulty bending or reaching your feet.
Our Sock Aid - made in Australia - will help with putting on socks. It makes the sometimes challenging process simpler and more comfortable. The sock helper for the elderly features an easy to use 'gutter' that will assist the user and allow him/her to put on socks by themselves.
How does the Sock Aid work?
Putting on socks can be challenging for seniors or people with limited mobility. Not only, do the users have to bend, they also have to lift their leg and use both hands to get the sock over their foot.
The Sock Aid features a plastic core with a terry cloth cover and a nylon liner. The plastic trough can be easily shaped and then slid inside the sock. Once the sock is securely positioned on the aid, the foot can then slide easily inside, with the sock then pulled into place through the use of two loop-handle straps.
How to use the Sock Aid from Homecraft?
- This gadget to help put on socks is easy to use.
- One sock is placed over the 'gutter'.
- While using the straps you can simply slip the foot into the sock and pull it into place.
- The slits allow flexibility around the heel and two pulling cords will permit one-hand application.
- The inside is lined with nylon to reduce friction while the outside is made from terry cloth to hold the sock firmly until it is on the foot.
