Care Seekers: Dressing Assistance

This limited demo showcases our multilingual voice-to-voice Virtual Assistant for Dressing Assistance. Support with selecting weather-appropriate clothing and safely dressing/undressing, including adaptive garments and simple fasteners.

Why Dressing Assistance matters
Dressing independently sustains dignity and reduces fall risks linked to rushed movements or tight, awkward clothing. Poor choices (too warm/cold, slippery socks) increase discomfort and hazards.

Comfortable fabrics, right fit, clear choices (two outfits, not ten), and predictable order—underlayers, supports, outerwear—without haste.

Our approach
We simplify wardrobes (labelled drawers, outfit sets), use adaptive clothing (Velcro, side-zips), and cue step-by-step. We consider continence, skin sensitivity, and temperature control.

Safety first
We avoid twisting or overreaching; we sit for balance; we use reachers/shoehorns. Sudden swelling, shortness of breath, or new skin marks are escalated to clinical care.
