If you have ever tried to take a shower on one foot, you know it is not easy. In fact, it can be downright dangerous, and it can take twice as long. An adjustable shower bench small enough to fit in any shower or bathtub is a great idea for someone on crutches. They can safely sit in the shower and take their time with their daily ritual. To keep their cast, boot or bandage dry consider a latex-free cast protector.

Idea#2: Gift Certificates

Gift cards are great ideas, but the kind of gift certificates you give someone on crutches should be a bit different. Get your creativity out and make your own gift certificates that the person can redeem any time during her recovery process. They should be for things like running errands, cooking meals, driving kids to and from school, doing laundry, and other chores that you think she probably struggles with now that she is on crutches.

Idea#3: Comfy Cozy Cast Toe Cover

Posture Corrector

It is generally hard to keep toes warm in the winter months even when you can wear whatever you want. Imagine having your toes exposed on the other side of a cast or boot! The toe covers are like hats for your toes. They fit over her toes like a slipper, and the adjustable Velcro strap attaches to itself around the backside of a cast or boot. The toe covers come in black and is washable so they can be worn throughout the recovery process to keep toes warm and dry.

Idea#5: Activities

If your friend or family member is cooped up at home alone a lot because of the fateful injury, buy her something that will keep her occupied.
