Occupational Therapy Practice
Guidelines for Driving and
Community Mobility for Older
Adults
By Wendy Stav, PhD, OTR/L, SCDCM, FAOTA
Driving and community mobility occupy
a central place in the lives of older
adults and their families and friends.
These skills are particularly valuable
as occupational enablers because they
facilitate participation in other IADLs,
education, work, play, leisure, and social activities. The changes
that take place during aging, however, may result in challenges to
older adults’ ability to drive or otherwise navigate the community.
Therefore, occupational therapy practitioners need to address driving
and community mobility with aging clients.
This Practice Guideline provides an overview of the occupational
therapy process for adults whose driving and community
mobility have been affected by various age-related conditions.
Topics include evaluation and behind-the-wheel assessment, client
interventions, technology- and vehicle-based interventions,
and policy interventions. Special attention is given to assessment
considerations for people with Alzheimer’s disease.
