Driving Program

Occupational Therapy practitioners with specialized training in driver rehabilitation may administer comprehensive driving screenings. This type of driving evaluation typically includes two phases: Phase 1 involves assessing the physical, visual, and mental abilities required for safety driving. Phase 2 involves a standardized, computer-based assessment of motor speed/control, span of attentional field, special judgement and decision making, speed of attention shifting, executive function, and identification of driving situations which are highly predictive of on-road performance.
