Caregiver's Compass
Let’s talk about the driver’s license (Episode 106)
The driver’s license and cognitive or physical impairment. Something that, unless you’ve experienced it, you can never fully understand. The battle and the ethics and the nuances to exploring safety vs. autonomy and taking the path of least resistance.
What in the world do we do when we are faced with the reality that it may be time to confront the reality that to the person you care for may no longer be safe to drive (or maybe they have already been told by a member of their medical team they cannot and you are now dealing with the aftermath).
In this episode, Stephanie takes you through the emotions and internal/ external battle of this very complex situation and takes you through her own personal experiences with the driver’s license and her own mother.
