It's all about being independent.

Do you or a loved one use a feeding tube? Do you see the benefit of a hands free feeding apparatus? The inventor's wife was placed on a peg tube three years ago and had no way to feed herself independently due to use of only one hand. The Peg Tube Stand was produced out of urgent necessity. The Jackson Peg Tube Stand is a feeding tube assistive device that anchors the feeding tube and allows for self feeding. One version or another of this aparatus has been successfully used by the inventor's wife for the past five (5) years.

The stand is for supporting a feeding tube used to deliver food product to a gastronomy patient. The device is adjustable and designed for use in a variety of situations including an automobile. It can be operated with one hand so that feeding can be done independently. Persons with full use of both hands will also find it useful. It can be used as an aide for caretakers of peg tube users who may need some assistance.

Marketing research has determined that there are no other products on the market to assist peg tube users to eat with minimal or no assistance except for an I.V. pole, which limits mobility.

The inventor also has other models, not yet patented, to assist caretakers of infants and children who are tube fed. Interviews with teachers of children on feeding tubes revealed that this would enable the students to eat with the other children and would help in socialization of all the children.
