American Health Care Apparel

Adaptive clothing exists to make dressing and changing easier and safer for both caregivers and those in their care. Our adaptive apparel is designed to look just like "regular" clothing, but has special features such as snaps down the back of a shirt allowing the caregiver ease of dress. The back snaps allow the person being dressed to simply place their arms out in front of them, the caregiver slips the shirt onto their extended arms and then snaps the shirt closed down the back. This is especially helpful for handicapped or elderly individuals who have limited range of motion.

We believe that adaptive clothing should improve the lives of both the wearer and the caregiver. Adaptive clothing by definition is special needs clothing that is adapted to help elderly, disabled or handicapped individuals receive better care from their caregivers. This type of clothing was initially designed for use in nursing homes and is widely used in elderly care and assisted living homes, in fact these types of institutions are our primary customers. Just recently more and more families have discovered these products to help their loved ones when the need arises.
