Have a question. The Dr. Has told us my husband needs to stop driving,but with that being said, if he passes a driving test he can continue to drive . Who do I contact for this?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Caregivers: Dementia Support Group.

Your local hospital group or health care system should be able to direct you to a certified driver evaluation clinic. People seek driver evaluation after strokes or head injuries, as well as for dementia or cognitive impairment. You should be able to do a simple internet search for driver evaluation near you.

Few states link results of driver evaluation to driving privileges; you can flunk and still keep driving legally, though you may be encouraged to surrender your license. However, a physician can notify the state or county that issues the license and recommend the patient's license be withdrawn.
