A while ago I had a client with decreased dexterity and feeling in his/her hands. Because of this, putting on jewelry was really, really hard! Especially necklaces and earrings. Managing the small parts and finding where the backing slid on was no easy feat and made a morning routine more frustrating. It was also a safety risk as she/he had decreased protective sensation meaning they could 100% have stabbed themselves with the back of the earring and have zero idea. Over time as she/he gained feeling/dexterity back, donning jewelry became easier, but it still left me thinking, is there any jewelry that's easily accessible?
