The Clinician’s Guide to Assessing and Counseling Older Drivers, 3rd Edition is published by the American Geriatrics Society (AGS) as a service to health care providers involved in the care of older adults. This edition is the result of a cooperative agreement between AGS and the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to update and expand the Physician’s Guide to Assessing and Counseling Older Drivers that was originally developed by the American Medical Association (AMA) under a prior cooperative agreement with NHTSA. The current title of the Guide — Clinician's Guide to Assessing and Counseling Older Drivers, 3rd Edition — reflects the interprofessional nature of the team caring for an Older Adult Driver. A maximum of 4.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™ can be earned through completion of the program.
