Nobody likes seeing a windshield like this, right?

OT Driver Rehabilitation Specialists work with clients in all kinds of weather.

Even if a client plans to “only drive when it’s nice out”, we know that the weather is unpredictable. They need to be able to safely drive in wind, rain, snow, fog, and all sorts of weather.

Now, if you were a specialist in the car with a client, what would cross your mind here?

>> Does the client realize visibility is limited by the rain on the windshield?
>> Do they remember where the wipers are?
>> Can they reach the wiper switch easily, without veering?

We test much of this before hitting the road, but as the activity demands increase, their responses are often different.

This is why it’s SO IMPORTANT for a Driver Rehabilitation Specialist to do a comprehensive assessment that includes time behind the wheel.

I’ll tell you one thing, working in this specialty practice area never gets boring!

Driver rehabilitation isn’t just for clients with LE amputations or paralysis.

People with a wide variety of conditions and abilities can benefit from individualized assessment and intervention in the arena of driving.

The first step in helping clients find the right solutions is understanding your role as an OT or OTA in a general practice setting.

I created a free CE course to help you get started!

Twice in one week, I had to dig into the research prior to my evaluations to understand unique dx’s.

Medicine is fascinating.

🤔 There seems to be some confusion…

When I talk about the Part 2: OT Driver Rehabilitation Specialist training, I often reference the behind-the-wheel workshop because you have to choose specific workshop dates to specialize.

But… you get more than *just* the behind-the-wheel workshop when you enroll.

When you enroll in Part 2, you gain access to…

💻 15 hours of specialized, high-level, OT-specific online continuing education
🚙 20 hours of hands-on time with the vehicles and on-the-road
👩🏽‍💻 A private community of OT Driver Rehab Specialists to network & find answers
👥 Colleagues and business friends you truly know after spending time in the car together

Although the hands-on, on-the-road workshop is arguably the most impactful, most memorable, and certainly the most fun part of the Part 2 training… it’s not the only piece that makes this training so effective.

The online + in-person training has been designed to give you the information and experience you need to transition from a general practice clinician to a specialist.

Move from assessments and interventions any OT can complete into the world of an OT Driver Rehab Specialist — including behind-the-wheel scenarios, adaptive equipment, and even collaborating with vendors for high-tech solutions if you choose.

When you finish Part 2, you’ll have the knowledge, practical skills, and confidence to start as an OT Driver Rehab Specialist.

The next Part 2 workshop is:

🗓️ November 5-7, 2025
🏔️ Denver, Colorado

Remember — you get the online component and community support AND the hands-on workshop experience when you enroll.

Send me a message if you have any questions or are ready to reserve your seat in the car.

Tomorrow, October 6th is the last day to enroll in the Colorado hands-on training — don’t idle!

As OT practitioners, we value education and training that includes coursework and fieldwork.

This combination is what we’ve known since our undergraduate days.

In the specialty area of driver rehab — where OTs learn to assess a driver’s abilities and train/retrain drivers using adaptive equipment — 𝙗𝙤𝙩𝙝 𝙘𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙠 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙨-𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙖𝙗𝙨𝙤𝙡𝙪𝙩𝙚𝙡𝙮 𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙖𝙡!

Adaptive Mobility offers the only 3-day, hands-on, workshop-based program created exclusively for OTs.

If you think about that, it’s pretty important.

Every time I sit with a driver who is using adaptive equipment for the first time, whether that is a fellow OT or a client, there is an awkwardness and insecurity.

By training in an actual car and on actual roads, I can guide the learning in a way that keeps everyone safe and builds best practices from the start.

The hands-on time allows you to try various equipment such as brake reaction timers, hand controls, left foot accelerators, cognitive tests, and more.

The options are extensive. The clients you serve as a specialist need an expert who has experienced each option before recommending what they need.

Day 2 of this incredible in-the-car training included more driving... and donuts! 🍩

Today, we spent time behind the wheel to gain hands-on experience with adaptive driving equipment, instructing, and regaining control of a vehicle in mock emergency scenarios.

This experience is what sets the Adaptive Mobility Services Part 2: OT Driver Rehabilitation Specialist Training above the rest. Hands-on, real-world experience and practicing what to do during emergency scenarios builds confidence and competence like nothing else.

The Part 2 workshop days are packed with learning and support... plus some sweet treats from my favorite local shops.

Stay tuned for more details, or send me a message if you're curious about changing lanes into driver rehab!

The next behind-the-wheel training is in DENVER, COLORADO in November.

Day 1 of the OT Driver Rehabilitation Specialist training just wrapped up — what a ride! 🚘

One of my favorite things about this workshop is seeing lightbulb moments as OT practitioners begin connecting all their OT knowledge to driver rehabilitation.

OT knowledge translates BEAUTIFULLY to the driver rehabilitation specialty.

Today we covered…

✔️ Position of readiness
✔️ Cueing from the instructor seat
✔️ Vision strategies
✔️ Vehicle emergency management
✔️ Driving route planning

🌟 And SO much more.

This group is smart, passionate, and excited to help clients achieve their driving goals!

October 6th is the deadline to enroll in the Part 2: OT Driver Rehabilitation Specialist Training that I’m hosting in Denver, Colorado, from November 5-7, 2025.

If you want the last spot in the car, let me know this week!

𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝗼 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁:

You must complete all of the online continuing education and receive the certificate of completion before we start the workshop.

There’s NO wiggle room here. The course completion certificate is computer-generated and must be time-stamped before the first day of the hands-on workshop.

The last thing I want you to do is binge-watch the videos and miss key information.

Your clients deserve better. YOU deserve better.

The hands-on training is intensive. You’ll practice vehicle adaptations, use hand controls, be in the specialist (instructor) seat, take control of the car under mock emergencies, and more.

You need to be fully prepared and ready to implement what you’ve learned.

I promise you can do it as long as you work through the online course at a reasonable pace and allow yourself to absorb all the new information.

Adaptive Mobility Services has helped over 100 practitioners become OT Driver Rehabilitation Specialists. (But there is still a HUGE need for specialists all over the country.)

📣 Did you hear? ⛰️

I’m bringing the Part 2: OT Driver Rehab Specialist Training to COLORADO!

This is a rare opportunity to take this specialized training outside of Pennsylvania.

If you’ve considered entering this specialty practice area, but flying to the East Coast is too much, THIS IS FOR YOU!

𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀:

💲 Payment plans and scholarships are available

The Part 2: OT Driver Rehabilitation Specialist Training includes online education and the hands-on, on-the-road workshop days, where you implement and solidify everything you learned online.

This hands-on experience is monumentally important. When you’ve tried the adaptive driving equipment yourself, practiced directing the driver from the passenger seat, and learned how to safely regain control of the vehicle during mock emergency scenarios, you’ll feel far more confident taking clients on the road.

Even if you’re not sure if you want to specialize, start your own driver rehabilitation business, or work for an established organization, the experience behind the wheel helps you understand and explain the next steps in the rehabilitation process.

I’m so excited… the Part 2: OT Driver Rehab Specialist Training starts on MONDAY!

OTs will hit the road using adaptive driving equipment and put their knowledge into practice.

Teaching other OT practitioners truly lights me up — especially when I see them gain confidence and competence during the workshop days.

The hands-on experience (which is a bit intimidating at first) also cultivates understanding and empathy for the clients they’ll work with in the future. Clients have the same fears and hesitations when coming to us for a driving assessment or rehab.

🚗 Hands-on, in-vehicle training is imperative if you want to become a specialist.

Even if you only want to complete driving risk assessments in the clinic and refer to a driving specialist, the behind-the-wheel training sets you up for success. When you understand the whole process, you can adequately prepare them physically and mentally.

I’m busy seeing clients and preparing for the workshop, but I can’t help but share that I’m SO EXCITED.

If you want a spot in the car during our next hands-on training, send me a message!

We have **ONE** spot still available November 5-7th, 2025 in Denver, CO.

Have a great week ! 🚗💚

Adaptive Mobility Services

My Mission: To provide exceptional care for all drivers and education for occupational therapy practitioners

For me, like most others, driving means independence, freedom, and mobility. I greatly respect this and your interest to continue with driving. As an occupational therapist, I understand medical conditions and illnesses, and I am skilled at evaluating and problem-solving solutions to promote independence. As a driver rehabilitation specialist, I understand the skills, knowledge, and activities needed for fitness to drive. By combining both areas of expertise, I support my drivers by identifying patterns of strengths and concerns, problem-solving solutions, and promote engagement in life that matches the abilities of each driver. I believe in partnering with drivers, their physicians, and support systems, to promote the highest, safest, level of travel -whether that be driving, as a passenger, or traveler.
