Frau Kettner's One-Hand Plate is a plate made to assist people with limited hand function & wrist mobility. Cutting & eating shouldn't be difficult. The One-Hand Plate solves this issue, providing those with limited arm mobility added confidence and independence, giving the users added motivation.
The One-Hand Plate has been specifically designed for those with limited or poor hand and arm functions. The physical challenges from injuries & conditions that affect hand function, can render the use of traditional day-to-day items unfit for use. Those who suffer from Parkinson's, strokes, cancers, osteoarthritis, or have had strokes, traumatic brain injuries, and other debilitating diseases, may find added independence from the One-Hand Plate.
A high back edge on the rear of the plate provides aid for shoveling smaller pieces of food onto the user's eating utensil, and the low back edge to the front of the plate provides space for cutting & preparing. A sauce slope makes liquids and sauces easier to consume for the user. The narrow cylinders, poke out to provide users with the ability to fix food on the plate, aiding the slicing, spreading, and peeling of food on the plate. And last of all, the silicone rings on the bottom of the plate provide stability for the user while eating.
The cylinders provide a unique opportunity for those with limited hand function and mobility to arrange and prepare different parts of their meal. This means that cutting and spreading are no longer elaborate tasks. Instead the added independence provides users the option to enjoy all types of food, of any size, without too much effort.
- Slip Resistant and Stackable: The silicone ring, and weight (730g) of the plate, give added stability during use on tables and flat surfaces. The underside allows users to stack multiple One-Hand Plate's, for added storage and stacking capabilities.
- Dish Washer Safe: The plate is made from a plastic compound that is safe for food, break-resistant, scratch-resistant, BPA-free, and dishwasher-safe. Melamine (the plastic compound) is longer lasting and fulfills hospital and rehabilitation facility requirements.
- Made & Designed in Germany: To ensure the highest quality, plates are made in Germany. Products made in Germany have an internationally recognised association with quality. And some of the world's best inventions have been German made & designed. This is why the plate has been produced this way.
- Environmentally Friendly Packaging: The packaging has been made from recycled cardboard, with a design that ensures unnecessary wastage has been minimised.
