A. Certified driver rehabilitation specialist (CDRS)
A description of a driver’s skills and abilities that indicates the person is capable of fully controlling their vehicle, responding to the dynamic driving environment, and obeying the rules of the road and traffic laws (TRB, 2016). Medical fitness to drive is when fitness to drive is questioned due to a change or progression in a medical condition; this may lead to someone being a medically at-risk driver.

True or false: OTAs are not permitted to work with individuals in relation to community mobility and driving.
FALSE
The occupational therapist must be directly involved in the delivery of services during the initial evaluation, and regularly through the course of intervention planning, implementation, and review and outcome evaluation.
The occupational therapist delegates parts of the process to the occupational therapy assistant as appropriate.
What type of public transportation is described below?
Use defined routes with predetermined stops that run on a published schedule
Most typically offered in the form of bus, subway, train, and light rail services
Usually the most economical and predictable form of public transportation
A. Demand-responsive system
B. Fixed route system
C. Paratransit service
B. Fixed route system
What type of public transportation is described below?
Transportation alternatives operated by transit systems for clients who have functional impairments that limit their access to regular fixed-route services
Transportation is provided between a specific point of origin and specific destination requested by the traveler.
Rides are generated by calling the transit operator. There may be multiple passengers with different destinations in the same vehicle. Travels on a requested route as opposed to a fixed route but may require reservations and may or may not include physical assistance for the client.
A. Demand-responsive system
B. Fixed route system
C. Paratransit service
A. Demand-responsive system
What type of public transportation is described below?
most typically offered in the form of van, shuttle, or microbus services that pick up riders outside their home and take them to specific locations rather than requiring them to be at a centralized public stop. The ADA allows transit companies to determine whether curb-to-curb or door-to-door services are provided; most transit companies offer additional services. The activity demands are highest for curb-to-curb services.
A. Demand-responsive system
B. Fixed route system
C. Paratransit service
C. Paratransit service
Supplemental transportation programs are sponsored by private and nonprofit organizations, places of worship, government agencies, and some transit agencies.
Fill the gap in services for those who need more assistance than basic paratransit services, are unable to use existing transportation services, or desire more flexible travel options.
What are the two types available?
Door-through-door: Passengers may be assisted to exit their travel point of origin and to enter the building at their destination, as well as on and off the vehicle.
Arm-through-arm: Passengers may be physically assisted by drivers to board, disembark, and safely reach their destination (similar to door-through-door, but specifies physical assistance).
Commercial carrier (e.g., airline, train), Taxi service, Rideshare (Uber, Lyft), shuttle, and van service (small-vehicle fleet) are what type of community mobility?
Commercial transportation: services operated as for-profit enterprises for which people pay privately
Which policy and regulatory factor related to community mobility is described below?
Established accessibility guidelines for public transportation (e.g., wheelchair lifts in buses, wheelchair tiedowns in vehicles, wheelchair ramps or elevators around facilities). Included guidelines to provide for priority seating, handrails, public address systems to announce stops, stop-request controls, and clearly marked destination and route signs. Established a mandate for complementary paratransit services under Title II (Transportation)—Part B.

What are some of the skill areas an OT must evaluate for and capacities for travel?
Cognitive skills: ability to consider transit options, read a schedule, figure out a route, calculate the time required to travel to a destination, determine the optimal departure time to arrive at the destination on time, remember which station to disembark at, and use the stop-request control at the appropriate time
Motor and praxis skills: ability to ambulate to and from the pickup location, step on and off the vehicle, maintain balance while walking in a moving vehicle, and maintain postural control while standing or sitting in a moving vehicle
Sensory–perceptual skills: ability to identify obstacles on a public vehicle and judge spatial relationships to identify seats, the stop-request control button, and the gap between the vehicle and the sidewalk or platform
Emotional regulation skills: ability to adjust to a crowded versus empty environment and to handle unexpected events.
Communication and social skills: ability to ask for directions and obtain information
Money management skills: have the correct fare ready, and use the change or ticket machines at the station; ability to download and use a rideshare app (including loading and maintaining payment).
In regard to community mobility, what are some context considerations an OT should incorporate into their evaluation?
- Performance must be considered in the context, feasibility, and mode of transportation and not solely based on diagnosis or age.
- Design of streets or community, accessibility of transit systems, topography of community
- Potential barriers (e.g., population density, socioeconomic status, housing).
The following are interventions directed for which mode of community mobility?
- Orientation to the local system
- Applying for paratransit services if appropriate
- Training in finding stops or making a reservation
- Scheduling and time management training
- Cushioning or positioning for potentially long trips
- Training in transferring from and securing a wheelchair or other mobility device as appropriate.
A. Personal transportation
B. Taxi and ride-sharing
C. Fixed route and paratransit
C. Fixed route and paratransit
