Have you ever heard the sayings “it’s better to work smarter not harder” and “better safe than sorry”? Although you could say either of these statements for a variety of reasons, they both seem applicable when we are considering a tool like the RMS Grabber Reacher with Rotating Head. Regardless of your age or physical abilities, all people can benefit from these reach extenders in many ways.  

We wanted to outline some of the benefits that can be found with these tools/devices as well as a few recommendations.

Benefits of the Grabber Reacher:

• Safety: With the Grabber Reacher, reaching into previously inaccessible spaces is made easier.  Reduce, or eliminate, the need to climb onto objects to retrieve items in high places. Avoid reaching into sketchy areas like tall grass, thorny bushes or holes to pick-up trash. You never know what creature is lurking in some of these places.
• Convenience: The Grabber Reacher is designed to help you easily and efficiently pick things that you may have otherwise had to climb, bend down or get on your knees, or move something to get. Its ease of use and effective design make picking up faster and more straightforward than ever before. Another convenient use for this is while operating a lawnmower. In the past one would need to dismount the mower in order to remove rocks or debris from the cutting area but with a Grabber Reacher you can do it without getting off the seat.
• Health: Whether you are living with a disability, getting older or even pregnant, the act of bending over, climbing or crawling may be impossible or may just cause an injury. Save your health by using one of the many Grabber Reacher tools available 
• Durability: The shaft is made from rust-proof lightweight aluminum and the internal wire is made from steel cable for durability and ease of use. 

A few of our favorites are:

• 2-PACK 32" BLUE GRABBER REACHER WITH ROTATING HEAD

• 2-PACK 32" AND 19" YELLOW GRABBER REACHER WITH ROTATING HEAD

• 32" LONG GRABBER REACHER WITH MAGNETIC TIP

The art of using a Sock Aid is very easy to master. In simple terms a sock aid is an assistance device that helps those with pain or physical limitations to put on socks. We’ve broken down this process into four easy steps that will help you overcome any limitations you have and get your socks right on!

Step 1: Put Sock on Sock Aid

Start sliding the sock onto the end of the sock aid which does not have the handles. Some find it is easiest to complete this by squeezing the sock aid in between your legs while you use both hands to slide the sock on.

Step 2: Hold Onto the Rope and Drop the Sock Aid to the Ground

Hold onto the rope using two hands. While still holding onto the rope, drop the sock aid to the ground.

Step 3: Place Foot Into Sock

While still holding onto the rope with both hands, place your foot into the sock so your toes are tight against the toes of the sock.

Step 4: Pull on the Rope and the Plastic of the Sock Aid

Pull on the ropes and the plastic of the sock aid to work the sock onto your foot. You may have to move your foot and leg slightly to help with this process.

Oh, do you need help with getting your shoes on as well? We have a great selection of Shoe Horns just for you!

Balance and mobility issues can arise for a bevy of different reasons. For some it is from a neurological condition, others it may be a joint issue or just related to age. At some point and for some reason the issue of stability can hinder ones ability to be independent and therefore become more dependent on someone else. A fall can scare seniors and family members into looking at mobility aids. One of the most common choices for mobility aids is a cane.

It’s important for seniors to select the cane that is best suited to their needs. While some people need a can only when they go outside of their home others may find that it is important for them to use a stability device inside their home as well. From weight, durability or device strength, several factors must be considered when choosing which cane is right for you.

Is A Cane For You

Simple yet effective, canes are the most mobile and least intrusive walking device. They are best suited for those with mild to moderate balance issues. The different styles of canes include your traditional curved handle cane, vertical grip cane, and the tripod/quad canes. If a person feels a little off balance when walking a cane may be the answer.

Advantages of using a cane include the fact that they are lightweight and easy to use in small or crowded spaces. They are generally the least expensive and most portable mobility aids. However, canes can’t support much of the body’s weight and really provides support to someone that can mostly walk on their own. Canes can also cause someone’s hand or wrist to hurt on one side.

Some Of Our Favorites

There are many different types of canes to choose from depending on your needs. It is easy to get bogged down in the selection process and chosen a few of our favorites to give you the extra bit of confidence you need while you are moving around.

The importance of clean hands is something that has been encouraged for a long time. Ever since we were kids we were told to wash our hands for supper, after using the restroom, or just after playing in the dirt outside. The idea of washing your hands when they looked dirty has always been a part of our lives. When you see that your hands are dirty you know they needs to be cleaned because of the germs that are visibly present on your hands. It is easy to see all of the unconscious reactions humans have that involve their hands and how that plays in the spread of germs.

When we venture into public and go to the grocery store or any other retail store for that matter, we are constantly using our hands to open doors, browse items, select and purchase those items. Many of these items we are touching are the same things that every other person going to that location is touching as well. This does not include the times that we rub our eyes, itch our nose, or touch the food that goes into our bodies.

The current pandemic has put a spotlight on the importance of germs and how easily they spread in the air and from the germs on our hands. The caution we take by wearing a face mask and keeping our hands clean can go a long way in preventing not only ourselves but others from contracting the novel coronavirus.

Importance of Hand Washing

The CDC have done extensive studies on the importance of hand washing and the role that plays in the spread of germs that can cause a variety of sicknesses and diseases. They go on to say that hand washing can reduce the number of people who get sick with diarrhea by 23-40%, reduce respiratory illness like colds 16-21% and even reduce absenteeism from gastrointestinal illness in school children by up to 57%.

With these statistics alone it is clear that reducing the germs on your hands play a vital role in ones overall health and well being. The use of soap and other antibacterial applications play an important part the reducing the spread of germs to you and the general public. While this is a good step, we can do more to help in this fight.

Reduce Your Touches

A simple way to reduce the chances of contracting the coronavirus, and other more common illnesses, is to limit the number of things that you touch with your hands. The Grabber Reacher is a simple device that has been traditionally used to grab items just beyond your reach. Now, with their light weight portability, they can be used for more routine tasks like when you are grocery shopping or in any type of retail store. The risk you take when touching items that can be a breeding ground for germs from 10s of 100s of people is something that can be easily avoided.

Use one of the many RMS Grabber Reachers to grab the many items that you normally snatch with your hands. Avoid any unnecessary situation of passing or receiving germs that could be harmful to you or those that come behind you. Although it is a simple alternative it can go a long way to keeping you and others safe.

The location and environment that you live and can grow your desire for certain times of the year. The winter months in the great American north can cause a strong longing for the spring or summer. Shaking cabin fever by getting outside to enjoy the great outdoors and connect with nature can breath life into the soul. 

Finding things you are passionate about, that energizes you, is important for your overall health. Below are a few things that we enjoy and while it isn’t extensive it can be a good place to start.

1. Walking

Going for a walk is a simple way to stay active, enjoy your local environment, and can be done almost anywhere. Whether embarking on long hikes or nice relaxing jaunts in your neighborhood, walking is a great way to maintain a good cardio level in a senior’s lifestyle.

2. Gardening

Gardening is a very popular hobby and a great outdoor activity. This can easily be implemented in ones daily routine and provides many benefits like increasing strength, flexibility and also providing a healthy food that can be incorporated into your weekly meal menu.

3. Birding

While for some birding may be an inquired taste, for others it is much more. It is a calming hobby that can be enjoyed individually or in groups. Whether walking around parks or through some neighborhoods, bird watching is a great activity for seniors who want to get outside and connect with the nature and environment around them.

4. Picnics

Set aside certain day(s) of the week to get outside and go for a picnic. The simple act of getting outside of your normal routine, i.e eating lunch at your house or a restaurant, go to a park or local outdoors area with a packed lunch. Soak in the sun and fresh air and bring your favorite food along with you.

5. Photography

Get your creative juices flowing by learning photography. Photography can be a hobby that coincides with your daily activities and can help encourage you to do even more activities. It can encourage you to go to new places, try new experiences and keep you active to pursuing that next great shot. Document your walks, up and coming garden, bird watching and picnics and regularly reflect on your experiences later on.

As mentioned previously this is not as much an exclusive list of things to do but can be more a starting off point to new, healthy routines and habits that can increase your quality of life.

If there is one thing we have learned recently it is how quickly our lives can change. As of a couple months ago we had the freedom to go to the grocery store, movie theater, for a walk in the park, or even dine at our favorite restaurant without much thought or reservation. When most of us have lived in a world where this has always been the reality, it can be hard when these luxuries are taken away, even just temporarily. Many question whether there is a new norm amongst us, and if we will have to alter our daily routines going forward.
