Automatic Pill Dispenser
This client with multiple sclerosis needed medication every two hours day and night. An automatic dispenser was required to enable her husband to be able to sleep at night. A dispenser was made comprising a battery and a geared electric motor energised either by a bite switch or radio control. This drives a curved rack that carries a pill on edge at its end & is delivered immediately in front of her mouth. The client gained some independence and her husband can sleep through the night.
