Adaptive cutlery
What is adaptive cutlery?
Adaptive cutlery is just like the normal cutlery you use to eat at mealtimes with some special ergonomic design elements that make it easier to use them. Features like wider or larger handles, non-slip grip, soft grip coatings, and lightweight construction can help you use cutlery if you have a weak grip, fatigue, pain, or limited dexterity. Weighted cutlery is particularly helpful if you have a hand tremor. Most adaptive cutlery is easy to clean and dishwasher safe for convenience and you can often buy one piece or a set depending on what you currently need.
