Ideal For

Occupational therapists recommending dressing aids for patients with movement restrictions that limit forward bending will find the Blue Jay 2-in-1 Dressing Aid Stick a standard, widely used option that covers both clothing and shoe donning in a single tool. Physical therapy and rehabilitation programs that include adaptive dressing equipment training will find the 24-inch length suitable for most seated and standing dressing tasks. Home health aides and caregivers assisting patients with upper and lower body dressing routines will find the combined S-hook and shoehorn design reduces the number of separate adaptive tools needed. DME suppliers and occupational therapy clinics that stock dressing aids for patient recommendation will find the lightweight, durable construction appropriate for daily use.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of clothing can I use this dressing aid with?
The smooth rounded S-hook works well with shirts, pants, jackets, undergarments, and socks — hooking onto waistbands, belt loops, collars, and sleeve openings to pull garments into position. It can also be used to retrieve lightweight items from the floor. Use a gentle touch with delicate or fine fabrics to avoid catching on the hook.

How do I use the shoehorn end?
Flip the dressing stick over so the shoehorn end faces down. Place the shoehorn inside the back of the shoe at the heel opening, then slide your foot in while the shoehorn guides the heel smoothly without collapsing the shoe's back counter. The 24-inch length allows this to be done while standing or seated without forward bending.

Is this dressing aid recommended after hip replacement surgery?
A dressing aid stick is one of the standard adaptive equipment items recommended by occupational therapists for patients with hip precautions following hip replacement surgery. Your occupational therapist will demonstrate the correct technique as part of your post-operative rehabilitation program.

Can this be used to pick up items from the floor?
Yes. The S-hook can hook onto lightweight items on the floor and lift them within reach without bending. It is not designed for heavy lifting. For more robust floor retrieval, a dedicated reacher/grabber tool is more effective for a wider range of objects.
