Independent Cooking With Adapted Tools

[@kenboff56]

Bob, you are such a natural on camera. Great video!

[@NatandGeorge]

I like how you refer to the items as good for those with limited finger ability, leaving it to viewers to realize you don't have ANY finger ability! So we have no excuse but to push ourselves a little harder to succeed in our own desires to be more independent!

Very informative, thank you and God bless.

We need more of Bob Lujano!

Hello! I'm a case manager with Brain Injury Connections and we recently talked about kitchen accessibility and showed this video to our attendants. A question I have from one of our attendants is where to find the arm prosthetic pieces that Bob is wearing at the beginning of the video? My client stated that he would love to figure that out as it would greatly help him mobilize his wheelchair much better without tearing down the skin on his arm. Thank you!

Thanks so much for looking into this for your client, Ashley! Bob’s upper limb prostheses were custom-molded for his residual limbs at Hanger Clinic in Birmingham, AL, which has multiple locations across the U.S. You can contact their limb specialists at [phone] to find a clinic near you. Since this type of prosthesis isn’t very common, any orthotist or prosthetist may be able to assist if you share a screenshot or link to this video as a reference. Additionally, Bob is still part of NCHPAD as an Expert Inclusion Specialist. If you or your client have further questions, feel free to schedule a call with him by emailing us at [e-mail].

Wow! Lots of interesting things that help with the household tasks. I loved that! We really can do anything...

Absolutely!

another kind of rocker knife I find handy for food prep is the Inuit ULU. I use the one you show for cuttiing meat on my plate.

Thanks so much for posting this. Gives me hope my mom may be able to continue cooking or some meal prep. I wish there was a link to those products in the description. Would be very helpful and also may provide additional funds for this organization.

Feel free to check out our article on the NCHPAD website that details how you can access the items in the video. Thanks so much for watching and let us know if there's anything else. www.nchpad.org/1674/6893/Adapted~Kitchen~Tools~~Utensils~~and~Accessibility

That cutting board is base!

[@clairemcheskin]

If you don't have fingers, might be better using a mezzaluna knife and pressing down on it from the top.
