Bauerfeind VenoTrain Glider Plus Donning Aid

$130.00

The VenoTrain® Glider Plus is the standing donning aid: a light metal frame with a wide basket and folding handles. You stretch the stocking over the basket, stand the frame on the floor, step in, and pull the stocking up by the handles — so the stocking goes on without you having to bend down to your foot at all. It can be prescribed by a physician.

It suits any type of medical compression stocking, and an independent institute has tested it for ease of use by people whose mobility is restricted. It is the aid to keep at home; the smaller VenoTrain Glider is the one that travels. Like every Bauerfeind product, it is made in Germany.

This item may not be covered. Coverage for supplies of this kind varies widely from plan to plan, and many reimburse them only under specific conditions. Some Canadian extended health benefit plans (e.g. Sun Life, Manulife, Canada Life, Blue Cross, Green Shield Canada) still reimburse it when accompanied by a valid prescription from your physician or nurse practitioner. We're happy to prepare an itemized estimate for your insurer — use Get an Insurance Estimate for this item, or add several to your cart and request one for everything at once. No charge, and it's not an order.

This one comes in a single size. Contact us if you would like help checking the fit.

With the VenoTrain Glider Plus you can put on any compression stocking without bending down:

Place the VenoTrain Glider Plus on a table in front of you with the opening of the basket pointing forward
Pull the stocking over the basket so the heel is always pointing toward you. This stretches out the stocking
Unfold the handles until they are upright and place the frame on the floor so that you can easily slide your foot into the stocking
Pull the VenoTrain Glider Plus up over your leg as far as you can, holding it by the unfolded handles
Now put the VenoTrain Glider Plus to one side and check that the stocking fits without creases
