People with disability can face increased risks when travelling in motor vehicles, yet occupational therapists often make complex transport and car seating decisions in an area where evidence and guidance have historically been limited.
This session will showcase Australia’s world-leading work to change this. Drawing on new research, clinical education, product safety and policy reform, this presentation will demonstrate how MACA is translating evidence into practical approaches that strengthen occupational therapy assessment, decision-making and safer transport outcomes for people with disability.
