Building Capacity in Driving ScreeningPresenter: Anne Dickerson
The purpose of this presentation is to illustrate how general practice occupational therapists have the skills and knowledge to address driving as a valued occupation using an algorithm based on the occupational therapy process. Using evidence from research, the presenter will discuss how practitioners can use their observation of complex instrumental activities of daily living to assist in determining who might be a safe or unsafe driver. She will also address how driver rehabilitation specialists can be utilized most effectively and efficiently with general practice occupational therapists to meet the needs of senior drivers.
