Description
SIGVARIS Doff 'n' Donner Stocking Aid Kit (Device + Cone)
**This listing is for BOTH the Doff 'n' Donner Device AND Donning cone**
The revolutionary Doff N’ Donner is a unique device that allows you to easily ‘don’ (put on) and ‘doff’ (take off) compression socks and compression stockings. It has a unique ‘toroid’ shape conforms to the shape of the garment rather than the garment being stretched to it. The Donning Cone acts as a loading device and makes it easy to roll stockings on to the Doff N' Donner.
This allows the compression garments to roll over bandages, freshly lotioned or wet limbs and dressings. The Doff N' Donner is perfect for both self-donning and caregiver use.

- Helps patients with limited dexterity and fits almost anyone.
- Extends life of the compression garments - no more ladders or ripping.
- Glides compression garments over wounds to prevent discomfort.
- Works with all styles of compression garments.
- May be used for self-donning or for caregiver use.
