Cutting your own nails needs two hands working together, and that is exactly what a client with hemiplegia, tremor or a weak grasp does not have. This nail care centre fastens the clipper to a board so the client only has to press, not pinch and hold.
The clipper pivots and is large enough to use with the heel of the hand or a closed fist. Suction feet hold the unit steady on a table or a bathroom bench so it does not skate away mid cut. Slots in the side hold emery boards in either a vertical or a horizontal position, so filing can be done one handed as well.
The surfaces wipe clean, which keeps it suitable for shared use in a group home or a clinic.
