This device helps seniors, children and those with limited mobility as they get dressed and ready for the day. The sock donner features a single-piece construction, meaning there is no assembly required; it’s ready to go straight out of the box. The center of the stocking aid easily holds compression socks, hosiery and stockings to reduce the risk of strain or injury from stooping and bending. The device stands 13 inches tall to provide plenty of area to slide your feet and legs into and easily pull up stockings and socks.
How To Use the YPC Stocking Donner:
Step 1: Place your compression stocking aid inside the semi-circle frame and pull the top of the stocking down over the semi-circle. The heel of the stocking must face the back of the YPC Stocking Donner.
Step 2: Continue to slide the stocking down over the semi-circle until the heel is centered and even with the top of the semi-circle. (It may be necessary to pull the heel farther down depending on foot and stocking size.)
Step 3: While sitting, insert your foot into the stocking until your foot is completely on the floor. Helpful tip: Hold the heel pocket against the frame as your slide your toes into the stocking.
Step 4: Grasp the padded handles of the YPC Stocking Donner and gently pull the donner and stocking up the leg until the stocking is above the calf. Try not to overstretch the stocking.
Step 5: Pull the YPC Stocking Sonner backward and down, free of the stocking.
Step 6: Be sure the heel of the stocking is properly placed on the foot, then adjust the length and smooth out any wrinkles by stroking and smoothing with the palm of your hands.
Caution:
Please carefully read instruction sheet before using and this device does't work in open toe stocking and zipper stocking.
