Physical Handicap Clothing
What types of garments can you find in the Buck and Buck catalog for
adults with physical handicaps?
Clothing for seniors with physical handicaps varies based upon the
unique needs of the person with the handicap or disability. The
physical handicap may be permanent or temporary. The person may need
the use of assistive devices such as a wheelchair, walker, crutches,
prosthetics or a respirator. Assistance in dressing may be needed or
independence may be preserved if adaptive clothing is available to them.
Buck and Buck specialize in adaptive, easy to wear clothing for
physically handicapped adults.
Generously cut garments with easy to use buttons, VELCRO® brand closures, zippers
and snaps makes the dressing process easier and can promote independence
in dressing for the elderly. We will adapt any of our garments to suit
the specific needs of the physically handicapped elderly.
Caregivers recognize the value of our open back and side zip
adaptive clothing styles. When used as we suggest the caregiver feels
less strain during the dressing procedure. Our selections for women and
men are stylish, comfortable and also easy to launder.
We have a line of handicap clothing suitable for the elderly who are
confined to wheelchairs. The hemlines of many of our dresses give extra
leg coverage when sitting in a wheelchair. This additional length
helps to ensure modesty in our handicap clothing. We have coats and
shower robes that provide ample coverage and are comfortable for the
elderly who must use a wheelchair.
Don't forget to also look at our accessories for wheelchairs and
walkers like the shearling arm and hand rests to ease pressure and
reduce friction and our selection of walker and wheelchair bags to keep
personal items within reach.
