Enabling your patient to dress independently, the Etac Socky Stocking Aid for Support and Compression Stockings is designed to ease the application of socks and compression stockings. Designed with soft fabric handles, the device can also be used for assisted application if a carer's help is required.
The Socky Aid is ideal for patients with limited hand strength and mobility, or those who need to reduce the friction between the sock and the floor. It can be used for different lengths and types of support and compression stockings, consisting of two nylon fabric sections that connect with Velcro. Each part has a handle to grip and pull the stocking over the foot and leg.
The support stocking can firstly be placed on the Socky. The fabric parts will divide when you pull up the stocking, these handles also enabling a carer to assist in the process. An example of correct application is shown in the image below.
