Item Details

ILC Reference NO 31:11:004
Item sourced from ILC VIC database


Good Grips Cutlery

Factors to Consider
Not designed to be used with users with heavy biting reflexes.
The fork and spoons are able to be bent so the angle can be altered.
By adjusting the angle of the head, this may assist users with limited hand function and shoulder movement to bring the cutlery to their mouth.
Some people have problems eating or drinking. This is a serious health risk. Signs include difficulty swallowing and chewing foods, coughing when eating or drinking, or food getting stuck in or spilling from the mouth. If you are concerned, visit a speech pathologist or consult your GP


Short Description
