study day<br />
<strong>College</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Occupational</strong> <strong>Therapists</strong>, London – Wednesday 16 May 2012<br />
As the population ages and more people with disabilities seek to drive, occupational therapists will<br />
increasingly need to address this instrumental activity <strong>of</strong> daily living with their clients. The key objectives<br />
<strong>of</strong> this one day study day are to raise the pr<strong>of</strong>ile <strong>of</strong> driving for occupational therapists and to empower<br />
occupational therapists to be confident in dealing with the issue <strong>of</strong> driving for their clients.<br />
Led by Sue Vernon and Kirsty Flint who are experts in the field <strong>of</strong> driver assessment as well as being<br />
occupational therapists and qualified Driving Standards Agency Approved driving instructors, this interactive<br />
event will provide information on licensing and pr<strong>of</strong>essional procedures, demonstrate how to map clinical<br />
assessments to functions relevant to driving, examine a variety <strong>of</strong> evidence based assessment tools as well<br />
as providing guidance on when to refer clients to specialists. Guidance will also be given on how to support<br />
clients around issues relating to driving cessation.<br />

1991 and qualified as a Driving Standards Agency Approved Driving<br />
