Need a hand with driving?
This month Williams OT was invited to do a presentation on driving with upper limb issues to the Royal Adelaide Hospital. The audience consisted of occupational therapists, physiotherapists and medical practitioners. We were lucky enough to be allowed to record the sessions. That means you can take advantage of what was discussed.
Brad Williams, Director and primary therapist at Williams Occupational Therapy presented an overview of the occupational therapy assessment targeted towards upper limb dysfunction. We cover the difference between a Department of Transport assessment and OT driver assessment, red flags and what to think about when considering driving with an upper limb issue, and how a Driver Trained Occupational Therapist can help.
