Older people's attitudes towards resuming driving in the first four months post‐stroke

ConclusionsFor the most part, driving was not a key consideration for participants during this phase of their recovery. Physical restrictions and confidence were seen as the main deterrent to driving post‐stroke; however, this varied according to gender. Driving information is generally not retained in the first four weeks of recovery post‐stroke. This has implications for the content and timing of driving information given post‐stroke.
