An alternative to syringe feeding

Suitable for feeding thick soups or pureed food to people in bed or those who have limited oral-motor abilities. The caregiver dispenses food at any chosen rate. A soft, silicone rubber feeding nozzle can be bent and squeezed to deliver food into the patient's mouth. The 5 1/2" nozzle holds one tablespoon. The 250 ml (8 ounce) food reservoir has a plunger that forces the food through a side port into the feeding nozzle. Clear plastic. Easy disassembly for cleaning. Institutional dishwasher safe.
