Which hand should be used when eating?

* Correct dining etiquette would maintain that the fork should always and only be used with the left hand. However, when a buffet is served at a party and the guests are eating while standing up, the fork can be held in whichever hand is suitable. * When eating at a restaurant or a guests home the fork is in the left hand and the knife is used by your right hand to cut meat or vegetables into small pieces. Once you have accomplished this then lay your knife at the inside rim of your plate and you can most certainly use your right hand with your fork again(unless you are left handed.)

When assisting a client eating one of first things the nurse aide should do is?

The best way to assist a client with eating is to do the "hand over hand" method. Gently place your hand or his or her hand, then guide the fork or spoon to his or her mouth. This allows the saliva to flow, aiding in digestion. And, if the client was previously unable to or forgetting how to use a fork or spoon, you may be surprised that this little action will help them remember how to use the utensil.
