Soup is one of the harder things to manage with a tremor or a weak grip, because the spoon has to stay level all the way to the mouth. The ELISpoon XL is a deep soup spoon shaped to stay steady in the hand, so more of what is on the spoon arrives where it is meant to.
The larger bowl means fewer trips from bowl to mouth, which helps anyone who tires part way through a meal. It suits clients with Parkinson’s, essential tremor, arthritis or reduced hand function who still want to feed themselves.
Mealtimes are where independence is most visible to families, so it is worth testing with the client’s usual bowl and usual food.
