Compression stockings. A small item that requires a surprisingly large amount of resources from both citizens and municipal healthcare staff. Aarhus City Lab is now seeking a solution that can ease the burden and make working with compression stockings simpler.
“In Aarhus Municipality alone, 1,552 citizens struggle daily with the simple yet difficult task of putting on and taking off compression stockings. This challenge not only diminishes their independence but also poses ergonomic risks for the healthcare staff assisting them. The current solutions are a hassle, and the time is now for a truly innovative and intelligent alternative”, Aarhus City Lab says about the event.
