Hip Replacement Recovery Kit Helps You Ease Back into Your Daily Routine. This recovery kit provides eight essential items for helping you perform everyday tasks while recovering from hip surgery. The Sock Aid, Stainless Steel Shoehorn and two Elastic Shoelaces (24" long) help you put on your socks and shoes with less effort. A Dressing Stick helps you dress and grab out-of-reach items — great for limited range of motion. A 32" Reacher helps pull things right to you. The Raised Toilet Seat makes it easier to sit and rise, and the long-handled Contoured Sponge helps you wash up. The kit comes with or without the Raised Toilet Seat.
