Abstract

Driving and/or transportation is an activity of daily living that should be considered in the rehabilitation plan of any individual. Safe and reliable transportation can be one of the most important factors to ensure the complete rehabilitation of an individual no matter the age or condition. Evaluation of a person's transportation needs can be complex and should be performed by a qualified professional with the necessary medical background and specialty experience to adequately address the exact needs. This paper describes the role of the transportation team and the vital activity performed by a driver rehabilitation specialist during a comprehensive transportation assessment.
