Eating aids (Bestic)

Occupational Therapist Evana looks at a switch operated eating aid called the Bestic. This clever robotic arm is fitted with a spoon that's controlled by the push of a switch and allows you or someone you know to enjoy meals at your own pace. If this doesn't meet your needs other options are shown.
