Dressing up is part of our routine, but some movements can become difficult or painful as we get older. Seniors suffering from mobility issues, range of motion problems, or pain from movement can become demotivated to dress up. Unfortunately, one’s confidence may go down if they do not feel they look presentable.
We understand the many situations that make it difficult for seniors to dress up by themselves. We also recognize the various preferences of our clients, and hence, we have collected some of the dressing tips we have observed, learned, and applied throughout the years.
Easy-to-wear clothes require less movement to wear. These clothes are great for seniors who prefer to do this task by themselves but find regular clothing challenging to wear. Substituting buttons with zippers or velcro tape makes the task easier.
Planning one’s clothes for the next day or the week ensures laundry and preparation are covered. Seniors who may need assistance in this part only can take advantage of someone who can prepare what they can wear tomorrow.
Comfortable and ergonomic clothes and footwear make the senior’s dressing convenient and their day sustainable. A senior’s movement will improve, and they will feel more relaxed with comfy clothes.
