Yvonne Campbell and Special Care Clothing Solutions
Our business is to design clothing to provide dignity and comfort for those with limited mobility or disability. Recognised as Australia’s leading supplier of quality Adaptive Clothing in design, product choice and sizing.
Yvonne Campbell began designing in 2005, when her mother, was confined to an Aged Care Facility with Alzheimer’s Disease. The nursing staff had requested Yvonne cut her mothers clothing up the back to help them dress her easily. As her mother had been a tailoress during her life, Yvonne did not consider that as a dignified option, and used her skills and knowledge to create suitable designs with the assistance and advise from the facility managers.
Over the years Yvonne has become aware of many different aspects of adaptive clothing requirements. Yvonne said she began to realise the broader need after having been called to the Adolescent Centre to assist young people, who had full mobility, yet needed specially designed clothing to assist them in their wellness program. Networking with Disability and Senior groups opened her eyes further to different design requirements for people with many different needs. We take pride in satisfying the ever growing need for clothing designed for ease of dressing and retention of dignity.
Yvonne has been involved in the creation of a non-for profit organisation and expos for seniors and people with disability, so constantly keeps up to date with the needs of the community, and the supports offered to them.
Our Adaptive clothing range helps:
- Home Carers and Nursing staff dress your loved one with Ease, Comfort & Dignity
- retain dignity and keep the “standard” look with special design features to suit the need.
- designs of clothing for the elderly are for ease of changing with no pressure on sensitive skin.
