Inaccessible food packaging may lead to psychological distress in patients with hand impairments, which can involve avoidance of eating.Food packaging that is large, lightweight and that has clear tabs or markers for pulling or tearing are better suited for patients with functional hand impairments.The use of a non-slip mat and/or tool with a sharp end might be useful aids to help patients be more independent with opening food packages while in hospital.
