Why Do Occupational Therapists Undertake<br />

Driving Assessments<br />

In a nutshell<br />

• Occupational Therapists are interested in how people function<br />

and interact with their environment on a day to day basis<br />

especially those mundane everyday activities we all take for<br />

granted and do without a second thought<br />

• Driving for the majority of people is a routine daily activity.<br />

• The objective is if at all possible to keep people driving rather<br />

than reduce their independence.
