Developed, under consultation with Occupational Therapists, to assist the person who: - Has poor visuo motor co-ordination - Lacks the strength to complete a
cutting action - Has a tremor and cannot place the
scissors at a given starting point - Has poor background/ foreground differentiation. Ideal for learning the opening / closing action of scissor skills.
The double loops on each handle allow a teacher and individual to simultaneously complete the cutting action.
The individual uses the loops furthest from the blade, while the teacher uses the other loops to assist with any necessary control, force or guidance.
Ideal for use with individuals with reduced grip strength, visual perceptual difficulties or tremor.
