Determining capacity to drive for drivers with dementia using research, ethics, and professional reasoning the responsibility of all occupational therapists by Linda A Hunt; American Occupational Therapy Association.[DVD] "Notes: "The intent of this course is to provide a tool, The Multifactor Older Driver with Dementia Evaluation model (MODEM), to both general practice and driving specialist occupational therapy practitioners who work with older driver clients with dementia to determine whether they should continue to drive or cease driving. MODEM illustrates the comprehensive components that should be considered to determine a driver's capacity to continue driving safely and helps frame conversations about cessation with clients. It includes comprehensive data collection from many sources, filtered through a system of professional reasoning, to determine a reasoned decision regarding fitness-to-drive."--Publisher's website.
