Birch Dressing Assistance Stick for Limited Mobility

Q: What are the primary uses of the dressing stick?

Here are four uses: The patient can use the tip of the dressing stick, insert it at the heel of a shoe, then once the tip is inserted, the user can easily push off the shoe. Dressing sticks are routinely used to push socks off of the feet, by users who cannot bend over or who have limited range of motion. Some patients use the dressing stick to help pull up pants. The angulated plastic-coated, wire metal tip can be used to retrieve clothing garments or socks from a low floor surface.
