A 77-year-old man who is taking part in the Alternative Care program with Scott County is in need of an electric shaver. He experiences chronic pain due to arthritis, which makes it difficult and painful to use a traditional razor. An electric shaver would allow him to continue shaving independently, without needing assistance from others, helping him maintain his dignity and autonomy in daily self-care. He is unable to afford this on his own.
