For many people, driving represents independence, freedom, and identity. As dementia progresses, however, changes in memory, judgment, reaction time, and decision-making can gradually affect a person's ability to drive safely.

This session explores the relationship between dementia and driving safety, including common warning signs, factors considered during driving assessments, and the responsibilities of healthcare providers when concerns arise. You'll also gain insight into the process of retiring from driving and learn practical strategies for approaching these difficult conversations with empathy and respect.

Understanding the risks, available supports, and planning options can help care partners make informed decisions while prioritizing the safety and well-being of everyone on the road.
