Ready to use, single serving pre-thickened drinks for patients with dysphagia
Although it only takes a few minutes, mixing powdered thickener at every mealtime isn’t always practical. Single serving, pre-thickened drinks for patients with dysphagia can be convenient whether supporting one patient at home or several in a hospital or nursing home.
Resource® Thickened Drinks come in two popular flavours:
- Apple IDDSI Level 3
- Orange IDDSI Level 3
The drinks can be enjoyed straight from the pot, so no washing up!
