NRS Healthcare Nosey Cup with Handles - CLEAR

Product Information

Available as a cup only or with integrated handles which make holding the Cup much easier, reducing the risk of spillages. This cutlery either comes with a fixed angle on the cutlery head or has a swivel joint between the head of the fork or spoon and the handle, which helps the head to stay horizontal despite uncontrolled movement. The Nosey Cup Premium is manufactured using extremely tough, shatterproof polycarbonate which resists cracking, prolonging the life of the cup. A person may display a poor appetite, but underlying this might be depression, difficulty communicating, pain and/or tiredness.

Look for retailers who are members of the British Healthcare Trades Association (BHTA), which means that they adhere to the organisation’s code of practice.Made out of high quality polycarbonate, which is virtually unbreakable and it will not shatter or splinter, when dropped. Spoons made of plastic, or with a plastic coated head, may prevent damage to the teeth if the diner has a strong bite reflex or poor control when bringing the spoon up to the mouth.

Your GP can refer you to your local speech and language therapy service, or you may be able to refer yourself. If you have problems with swallowing, but have never seen a speech and language therapist, you are strongly advised to do so. If your item is faulty or has been damaged in transit, please contact us to discuss whether you would like to receive a replacement or a refund.The ergonomic shape ensures the Cup sits comfortably in the hand, making it ideal for those with limited grip.

When they become difficult to do for yourself, the problems can seem to be disproportionately dominant. These allow you to use your whole hand to grasp the handle, or you can put your fingers through the handle so that a tight grip is not necessary. If you find it difficult to maintain your head in an upright position, try using a head rest, a rolled-up towel or a small cushion as a support. If you find it difficult to grip things, perhaps due to pain or weakness, try looking for cutlery that has a larger handle, without making it too heavy.Ideally you want to be seated with your feet on the floor (or foot plates of a wheelchair, or a foot rest), with your ankles, knees and hips at right angles.
