Picking up
a spoon, lifting food to your mouth, or just using the fork and knife. It’s
naturally for healthy people to eat, drink, write and not think of every motion
needed to do that.
Disabilities
of our body can make daily living activities more difficult.
I would
like to write about some quite simple, but definitely important innovations for
people with physical limitations (especially for those one who have Parkinson’s, have suffered a stroke or also for older persons).
The Thomas Steady Arm is an arm support, designed to help
people with arm and hand tremors. On the producer’s website we can read how it
works: “A patient’s arm is placed in the arm holder to be secured with straps
and a set of tension adjusters are used to react to the effects of the
tremors”.
Utensil Holder is an
invention for people with limited hand function. This item helps holding
utensils while eating or writing. The idea of the invention is simply: in a
pocket you could put items such as pens, brushes, spoons, etc. and they are
securely holds. People with health problems can eat without assistance.
