An entry-level OTR® working in an outpatient rehabilitation clinic is evaluating a client who was recently hospitalized for dehydration and subsequently diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment. The client lives alone in an independent living facility. Before admission, the client was independent in ADLs and light homemaking and active in community and social activities, including driving independently. The client reports no crash record and no violations or citations but avoids night driving, highway driving, and driving in rush-hour traffic or heavy rain. By what means would the OTR® MOST APPROPRIATELY gather background information on the client's fitness to drive

The missing options are:

A. Contact the Department of Motor Vehicles to verify the client's driving history, do a chart review, and gather collateral information.

B. Do a chart review, and ask for a copy of the client's driver's license.

C. Do a chart review, and interview a close relative about the client's driving skills and avoidance behaviors.

D. Interview the client about the client's driving experiences and skills.

The correct answer is A. Contact the Department of Motor Vehicles to verify the client's driving history, do a chart review, and gather collateral information.

Explanation:

The most appropriate way to gather background information is by contacting the Department of Motor Vehicles since if the driver had has any problem in the past, the department will have it in its records, and from there, the person can confirm if the patient is saying the truth. Another thing that has to be check is the patient's chart and look for signs that can affect his driving. Lastly, the person has to collect collateral information by contacting any relatives or neighbors. Once that all this information is processed, the professional can make a decision.
