What’s involved?

The Occupational Therapy driving assessment in Campbelltown is made up of two parts:

Off-Road Assessment

The OT completes a visual, cognitive and physical screen with the client in their home. This aims to identify any medical conditions that may affect an individual’s ability to drive in a safe manner. Family and friends are also welcome.

On-Road Assessment

The client drives around in their local area with the OT and qualified driving instructor in a dual controlled car. The assessment looks at how the individual’s medical condition impacts on their driving.

After the Occupational Therapy driving assessment, the OT will inform the client of the assessment’s outcome. The OT’s report of the assessment will then be sent to the client, RMS and doctor (or source of referral).
