Dysphagia Cup - Green

This uniquely designed, value for money Dysphagia Cup helps to promote independence and preserve dignity in those suffering from dysphagia or disorders associated with difficulty swallowing. The design of the cup encourages users to tuck their chin towards the chest, which in turn gives swallowing mechanisms time to work. This design also helps to reduce the risk of liquids escaping on contact with the mouth and directs the contents of the cup in a more controlled way when compared to regular drinking cups. Furthermore, the Dysphagia Cup give good nose clearance so the cup can be emptied without the need for the user to tilt their head backwards. To ensure this drinking cup is suitable even for those with limited dexterity it features an over-sized broad handle that can be gripped by the whole hand or even just the thumb.
