As I watch the morning news, and see yet another senior driver traveling down the wrong way on the interstate, I have to wonder...... what are you as the activities director doing in your community to meet the needs of your driving residents? Every six months, I offer the residents an opportunity to take a defensive driving class. The class is offered through AARP, and is accepted by most insurance companies so that the resident can get a discount on their rates. Yes, our management team speaks to the resident, and/or their family when it becomes obvious that having the keys to their car is no longer a good idea.......but now, I wonder, is there something more that I can do? So, please, if there is something that is successful in your community, we'd all love to hear it!
