Frequently Asked Questions -
Q1. Who can benefit from using swivel-handle utensils?
Swivel-handle utensils are suitable for people who have Parkinson's, are recovering from a stroke, have neurological impairments, have arthritis, or have limited range of motion in their wrist.
Q2. How do swivel-handle utensils help with eating?
The swivel head of the swivel-handle utensil moves freely with the hand, which helps keep the level of food on the spoon/fork in a stable position. Using a swivel-handle utensil can reduce spills, and therefore eating is made much easier, requiring less movement of the wrist.
Q3. What makes the handle design easier to use?
The swivel-handle utensils are designed for people who have limited range of motion in their hands or who may have weak hand-grip strength. The added size of the large plastic handle provides additional grip and control for the user, even for users with less hand strength or poor fine motor skills.

Currently, we offer three options for swivel-handle utensils: fork, spork, and combo fork/teaspoon set. These items are available for purchase in sets of two or as a single item.
