Here are few tips about how to make this easier and less time-consuming:
Donning aids
There are three different categories of donning aids available:
- Rubber gloves provide a better grip as they stick to your garments.
- Fabric donning aids are made of smooth material so that the garment slides over the heel. They can only be used with open-toe garments.
- Stocking donners are available in different sizes and for different types of garments for easy application with minimal strain.
Some garments are also available with a zipper option for easier application.
General tips about donning and doffing:
- Put your garments on in the morning.
- Make sure your limbs are completely dry.
- Remove all jewelry and rings.
- Long fingernails may damage the garments when you put them on.
- Avoid gathering or stretching the fabric too much.
- Use a moisturizing cream after wearing.
