A course for Occupational Therapists created by an Occupational Therapist.

Prior to opening my private practice in driving rehab, I worked in all areas of rehab.  I was just like YOU wondering if my patient was safe to drive.

Testimonials

As a new grad, I haven't had a lot of experience with working with patients on driving. Through my fieldwork experience, it wasn't something that we addressed. I feel that after taking this course, I have those skills and the knowledge that I need to fully help my patients and family members approach driving and help them get back out on the road if that is appropriate for them.

Heather Shields

I’m Heather Shields, an experienced occupational therapist, driving instructor and certified driving rehab specialist.

I have helped hundreds of people regain their ability to drive following an acute or chronic medical event, such as a stroke, traumatic brain injury, concussion, spinal cord injury, leg amputation, peripheral neuropathy, multiple sclerosis, dementia, and students with special needs to ensure they have the skills required to take driver’s ed.

I work with clients, their family and the healthcare team(physicians, therapists, case managers, social workers) to determine when someone is ready to return to driving.
