About Our Location
At University of Vermont Health - UVM Medical Center, we want to help you achieve your highest quality of life. Our driving rehabilitation program provides evaluation and appropriate treatment for people with conditions that may affect their ability to drive safely.
We offer programs for new drivers, senior drivers, adaptive equipment and low vision driving.
Program Details
We start by performing an in-depth clinical evaluation of your vision, thinking skills and physical abilities. This allows us to understand the source of any problems that you may be having and decide if further testing of treatment is needed.
An on-road evaluation will be conducted when our clinicians decide you are safe to proceed. This evaluation is assed to your ability to handle the vehicle in a variety of traffic situations and determine if training or adaptative equipment is needed.
The on-road evaluation and training is performed by certified driving rehabilitation specialists who are also Vermont Driving School instructors.
The occupational therapist will review your evaluation and work with you to develop an individualized program. We provide one-on-one training to help you reach your driving goals.
No, the on-road evaluation will take place in our driver rehabilitation car, which has an automatic transmission as well as an instructor’s brake. You may need to bring a “coach” who must be a licensed driver over the age of 25.
An order from your medical provider for occupational therapy is required for the evaluation and program. Once we receive this order, we will contact you to schedule an appointment.
