Daily Living Riser and Recliner Chairs

No Comments

For those that have had the benefit of using a reclining, electrically operated chair, they will tell you that there is absolutely nothing quite like them. They are comfortable for the user, infirm or disabled, the user can adjust the recline of the chair by the simple operation of push buttons and when they want to get out of the chair, they can use this to lift them to a semi-standing position relieving the strain on their back and legs.

An example of a comprehensive electric chair from OT Stores UK has to be the Chatsworth Recliner Riser, which features a single motor and the leg rest and backrest move in sequence using the simple to operate hand control. All chairs are made to order and can be made to specific requirements.

Pill Dose Wallet

No Comments

With our aging population doctors are prescribing more medication to keep us free from pain, ailments, and basically alive much longer than we have ever done before. However, it can be confusing to some elderly people who through the aging process are becoming a little more forgetful, which could be a problem where medication is concerned.

Often it is necessary for some to take a number of pills on a daily basis and it can be tricky to remember whether you have taken the pill or the ones you have taken already. The Pill Daily Dose Wallet, which comes in seven day strips, could be the answer to the problem. This wallet contains seven individual one-day strips, marked with the day and dose time whether this be morning, afternoon, evening, and bedtime and the XA-50045 is priced at £11.15 inclusive of VAT.

Daily Living: Gardening Tools

No Comments

Gardening is a wonderful hobby and a therapeutic pastime enjoyed by millions. However, as we get older, or have suffered a disability, it can become more difficult to carry out the everyday tasks that we used to do without a second thought.

Help is at hand through the range of gardening tools that are available through OT Stores UK, designed to take out the strain and discomfort on hands and wrists. There is also the important area of the back which we know can impact on everyday tasks from sitting comfortably, to sleeping soundly; it may also be exacerbated by certain movements, such as bending to the floor.

Getting up and down to those garden chores can be quite a strain on both the back and knees, but the Garden Kneeler model XA-50026 will ease the effort and strain and comes to you through our on-line shop at just £14.95 plus VAT.

Mobility: Looking after your Back

Our backs our perhaps the most vulnerable part of our bodies and it is one which we seem to neglect on a regular basis. Of course it is not always due our own fault; we may have had an accident, or suffered from bad posture due to car seats or a work related problem. However one of the most common is something that we can do little about, and that is the onset of old age.

There are a number of areas where help in lifting, reaching or picking up items can be achieved without putting stain on our backs. OT Stores UK feature a variety of items that will help to prevent putting extra strain on to our backs, the standard helping hand reacher model REAC265 is an example of the many that can be seen at the OT Stores online shop pages. This item is indispensable for those with limited ability, it is lightweight and easy to use and can help in picking up from both the floor as well as reaching a high objects.

Daily Living Aids - Plug Pulls

We can only imagine how difficult it can be for someone who has arthritic fingers, or has a weak grip to perform tasks that most of us would consider to simple and everyday. This can take the form of lifting, reaching or turning things on and off. But how about one of those everyday things like removing an electric plug from its socket?

At OT Stores UK the answer is to hand with specially designed plug pulls which allows even those with the poorest of grips to remove the plug top from the socket. If you have a really weak grip we would suggest that the
Handiplug model number PLUG202 would be ideal in your situation. This item is supplied in packs of two, has a standard three pin base with a handle giving a four finger hold to allow more leverage. Priced at just £11.74 inclusive of VAT this aid will prove its worth many times over.

Dresssing Aids

No Comments

It is so important for those of us who may be disabled, infirm or elderly to maintain our independence and an area which gives people the most concern and difficulty is doing simple tasks such as dressing.

Fortunately there is now an increasing number of cleverly designed aids which can help in this matter. Putting on stockings or tights is an example where with a little assistance this task can be carried out with the minimum of discomfort.

For stocking wearers the Stocking aid model number STOC400 is a device that can be used by just about anyone. The user has to simply feed the sock or stocking over the plastic gutter, lower the gutter to the floor to insert your foot into the open end, and then use the long cotton tapes to pull the sock/ stocking up over the foot and leg. Competitively priced at just £3.40 inclusive of VAT, this is a must for those that require this form of help.
