    EPISODE TITLE: Driving Rehab with Terri Cassidy

    EPISODE SUMMARY: In this episode of NOGGINS & NEURONS: Brain Injury Recovery Simplified, Doro and Deb talk with Terri Cassidy, OTD, OTR/L, CDRS about driving after stroke. We covered a lot of ground in this interesting conversation. Highlights include:

    • Terri’s journey into private practice
    • Meeting clients where they are
    • Community connections and client rapport
    • Importance of early and often conversations around driving safety and retirement.
    • FREE RESOURCE FOR PROVIDERS: Generalist Resource to Integrate Driving (GRID) contains assessments and scoring information; Not everyone needs to see a specialist (moderate to severe dementia) grid for decision making
    • Value of a driving risk assessment
    • Progression of driving evaluation: start to finish.
    • OT-Drive Model: Integrating the Instrumental Activity of Daily Living (I-ADL) of driving and community mobility into routine practice
    • Clinical Assessment Tools that Terri & Doro use as part of the driving evaluation
    • The importance of potential - leave room for recovery that hasn’t happened yet. This can be more clinical rehab as well as training within the vehicle
    • Terri’s business has a readiness to drive program – for people with history of CVA, brain injury as children. Helping people make decisions around driving appropriateness.
    • Terri’s wisdom for practitioners, survivors, care partners – keep asking questions!
