Driving


Driving is a complex skill that requires visual, motor, and cognitive information to be processed and integrated very quickly. Occupational Therapists can evaluate the skills needed for driving, and help survivors understand the impairments that may delay a return to the role of driving. Ask your occupational therapist to address driving! Occupational Therapists can help you decide when and if you need to see a Certified Driving Rehabilitation Specialist (CDRS).
