Welcome to the third edition of our Independence Series articles. Our previous post looked at what is available to reduce stress and pain in the bathroom. In this article, we have moved to the bedroom with the goal of improving comfort and confidence all within the space of one’s own home. We’d like to present to you: our top 3 bedroom aids.
At Lifeline24, we believe that the bedroom should be a place to rest and relax, with as little danger or anxiety as possible. Today, we will be showing how to keep things this way. But remember: we are still only a button away if anything doesn’t go to plan!
Note that many of these products are also eligible for VAT relief.
To the bedroom, where we need to be comfortable and safe…
1. Carex Sock Aid
Everyone has heard about shoehorns and how useful they are! You slip them down your boot or shoe and the scare and pains of bending over to put them on are relieved. But what about your socks? It is the exact same body position but where is the sock horn? Well, we have found one perfect for you.
But talking of the shoehorn… Here is an especially long-handled horn so that you have a complete pair!
2. Hair Dryer Holder
Drying your hair can be so tiring on your arms, but no part of your routine should be a workout – unless it is a sporting activity! This hair dryer stand allows you to rest as it does the work for you. No arm aches, no standing, no trying to juggle the use of a hairdryer and hairbrush at once… Enjoy knowing you look and feel good easily after a shower or bath. This item can even act as a storage space for your hairdryer, minimising the messy wires and creating space elsewhere.
3. Bed Rail For The Elderly
We have taken some time showing you how getting ready in the bedroom can be made easier. But what about the most obvious obstacle: getting in and out of bed? Although it can seem like a small space of time for accidents to happen, there can be an opportunity for falls or pains when moving from the bed to the floor or the opposite. This bed rail provides support by giving an extra place to hold onto.
