Take action:
Do not give foods that can break off into hard pieces: avoid raw carrot, celery sticks and apple pieces, for example – these foods should be grated, cooked or mashed; sausages, frankfurters and other meats should be cut into pieces; tough skins on sausages should be removed; do not give popcorn, nuts, hard lollies, cornchips or other similar foods.
