According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 26% of adults have a disability of some nature. Of that portion, 3.6% (or over 11.8 million) of those folks have a disability that makes self-bathing or dressing more difficult.
Unfortunately, most products come designed with little thought given to the needs of consumers with disabilities. Some folks can’t press down a spray nozzle or twist the dial on the bottom of their deodorant to make it rise. A cursory survey of the typical personal care products we might use at least once daily would uncover many instances of packaging that require both hands and complex or forceful actions to dispense or use the product.
