  • Hands free palm strap - an adjustable strap with slider buckle carries the fork on the back of the hand, so no grip strength is needed to hold it.
  • Bendable stainless neck - shape the neck by hand to suit the user's wrist and elbow range, then leave it set at the most comfortable angle.
  • 360 degree rotating head - the fork head turns freely so the tines stay level through the lift, meaning less food is lost between plate and mouth.
Keep Eating Independently with a 21cm Adaptive Fork That Straps to the Hand 21cm overall length . 4cm wide . 0.1kg . food grade stainless steel . bendable neck . 360o rotating head . Adjustable hand strap When grip strength fades, a standard fork becomes the hardest object on the table. The SectorCare Adaptive Eating Fork takes gripping out of the equation entirely. A strap passes across the back of the hand and two hook and loop cuffs hold the 10cm handle body in place, so the fork stays put even when the fingers cannot close around it. The person keeps feeding themselves, and the carer is not left standing over the plate. The stainless steel neck bends by hand to whatever angle suits that person's reach, and the fork head turns a full 360o so the tines stay level as the wrist moves. The head and neck are food grade stainless steel and rinse clean after a meal. The whole unit weighs just 0.1kg, so there is no extra load on a tired arm, and the ribbed handle body gives the cuffs an anti slip surface to hold against. At 21cm overall it stores alongside ordinary cutlery in a drawer or a care pack. Product Features Hands free palm strap: the adjustable strap and slider buckle carry the fork on the hand, so no grip strength is needed to hold it. Bendable stainless steel neck: shape the angle once to suit the individual's wrist and elbow range, then leave it set. 360o rotating fork head: the head turns freely so the tines stay level through the lift, which means less food lost between plate and mouth. Two point cuff hold: upper and lower hook and loop cuffs secure the handle at both ends rather than relying on a single band. Ribbed anti slip handle: the grooved 10cm handle body resists twisting inside the cuffs during a meal. Food grade stainless steel: safe against food, easy to wipe or rinse, and holds its finish through daily use. Light 0.1kg build: adds almost nothing to the arm, which matters when fatigue is part of the picture. Left or right hand use: the strap is symmetrical and the neck bends either way, so one unit suits either side. Perfect For Home dining tables: lets someone with arthritis or a weak grip finish a meal without asking for help. Aged care and nursing home dining rooms: one lightweight aid per resident, easy for staff to fit and remove between sittings. Hospital bedside and overbed tray tables: the bendable neck compensates for the awkward angles of eating propped up in bed. Rehabilitation and occupational therapy: supports self feeding practice during recovery from stroke or hand injury. Respite and day programs: small enough to travel with a participant between home and program. Eating away from home: packs flat in a bag for meals at a cafe, a family table or a day out. Mealtimes are one of the last routines people want help with. This 21cm adaptive fork keeps that routine in the person's own hands through a hands free strap, a bendable stainless steel neck and a 360o rotating head, all at 0.1kg in food grade stainless steel. Suited to home dining, aged care and nursing home settings, hospital bedsides, rehabilitation programs and eating out, and available across Australia.
