Blog Entry: I'm an OT with a nice gentleman client who has recently had his second below the elbow amputation. He has a very supportive wife but they both would prefer if he could clean himself on the toilet. I'm aware of assistive devices on the market, and that a bidet might be his best answer.

They seem as though they would be very difficult to use with prostheses. Any advice?
