Why we know this works!
We love this resource because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we sit with adult children who dread one conversation above all others: asking a parent to hand over the keys. Does a driving assessment automatically end someone's driving? No. A driving rehabilitation specialist works with the driver to find safe options first, and licenses can be restricted instead of revoked, for example daytime only, a set radius from home, or required use of adaptive equipment. And if no safe option exists, it protects your relationship when the professional, not the family, is the one who says it is time to stop.
An assessment is especially important after a stroke, with early dementia, or when vision or reaction-time changes make certain situations like night driving feel risky. If driving has already ended, skip the assessment and solve transportation instead; our GoGo Grandparent listing shows how to get monitored rides without a smartphone.
