Reaching Aids for Disabled - Practical Aid for Grasping Objects

The reaching aids for disabled individuals from Moretti, a leading company in the field of aids for the disabled and elderly, are designed to simplify the daily actions of those with motor difficulties in their hands and fingers. This aid allows for secure and precise grasping of objects, improving the autonomy of those who suffer from limitations in their gripping abilities. Reaching aids are particularly useful for people with arthritis, muscle weakness, or other issues that prevent normal hand use.

Reaching Aid: Features and High-Quality Materials

The reaching aid is made of anodized aluminum, a lightweight yet extremely durable material. This makes it ideal for daily use, easy to handle, yet solid and long-lasting. The head of the aid is equipped with serrated ends, ensuring a stable and secure grip even on small objects, such as caps, bottles, or kitchen utensils. The aid is designed to lift objects with a maximum weight of 2 kg, making it perfect for most household or outdoor uses.

How to Use the Reaching Aid for Disabled: Simple and Practical

Using the reaching aids is extremely simple. The device is comfortably held via an ergonomic grip, designed to reduce hand fatigue. Once the object is grasped, just press the control lever located at the handle height to close the ends of the aid around the object. The object can then be lifted and moved to a safe surface, such as a table or shelf. To release the object, simply let go of the control lever, allowing the aid to reopen.

This ease of use makes it a practical aid for elderly or disabled individuals, and particularly useful for those with limited mobility in their hands or arms.

Reaching Aid for Disabled: Cleaning and Maintenance

To ensure optimal functioning and a long lifespan of the aid, it is essential to perform proper cleaning and maintenance. To clean it, it is recommended to use a damp cloth with neutral soap, avoiding harsh detergents that could damage the surface. After cleaning the aid, dry it thoroughly before storing or reusing it. If disinfection is necessary, a common neutral disinfectant cleaner, preferably alcohol-based, can be used to sanitize the aid without compromising its materials.
