Does anyone have any ideas of what type of clothing a man can wear so that it's quick and easy to get it on and off? He needs help with everything but is not in nappies yet.
Maybe what he wears around the house should be easier than what he wears when I take him out. I don't think he'd be happy wearing just a dressing gown.
No buttons, no zippers, no belts, no buckles.
For those who are severely impaired and need to be dressed any type of shirt can be cut down the back and replaced with velcro.
A light weight shawl can be wrapped round the back or front and are very comforting.
A wrap aound towel with a velcro fastener at the waist provides privacy which is very important for most elderly men but provides easy acess for bath room visits especially for men who must stand up to be able to urinate. Very much depends on the severely of the impairment of the individual and his percieved need to keep up appearances
