Oven trolley
The client has rheumatoid arthritis resulting in poor upper limb power, reduced range of movement and very limited dexterity and grip. Her mobility is slow and unsteady. Removing items from the oven is problematic and potentially dangerous. She requires a small, stable but easily moveable table whose upper surface is the same height as the oven shelf.
A small wheeled table, which can be hooked onto the oven shelf to stop movement when transferring her dish, was manufactured. The inclusion of a Formica top with a small lip on three sides ensures durability and safety.
The client can now remove items from the oven safely.
