Erler Zimmer age simulation set, XL version in detail
This unique set allows you to experience the physical limitations of old age for yourself if you are over 175 cm tall or have a strong build. With joint supports, weights, fixations, earplugs and glasses, you can realistically simulate the physical difficulties of older people. This is an impressive demonstration for anyone working in the caring professions. The set promotes understanding of patients' difficulties and contributes to practical training.
Glasses:
These glasses show you the effects of visual impairment. They limit your peripheral vision and simulate a cataract.
Gloves (left and right):
The gloves cause you to lose the sense of touch in your fingers when gripping.
Finger bandage (left and right):
These bandages restrict the mobility of your fingers and make you clumsy when gripping.
Walking stick:
The walking stick provides you with support when walking.
Ear plugs (50 pairs):
The ear plugs muffle high-pitched sounds and simulate age-related hearing loss.
Back fixation:
This support keeps your back fixed in a slightly bent position.
Elbow supports (right and left):
These supports limit the mobility of your elbows.
Wrist weights (right and left):
These weights simulate the decreasing muscle strength in your arms.
Knee supports (right and left):
These supports severely limit the mobility of your knees.
