Try: #the caregiver (cg) can simplify things for the cr by pre-cutting food so it is served in bite-sized pieces whether in a serving dish or on the cr cr’s plate #simplify things further by serving cooked food soft enough not to require more cutting than could be done with the side of a fork or spoon #instead of setting the cr cr’s place with a number of utensils the cg can place either a spoon or a fork at the cr cr’s place clearing it before replacing it so the cr never has to think about managing more than just one utensil #on days when the cr cr’s ability to handle even one utensil is low serve food the cr really enjoys that can be eaten with the fingers
