Call for Participation

One of the most difficult decisions families and carers face is knowing when it may be time for an older person with cognitive impairment to stop driving.

These conversations can affect independence, safety, dignity, and family relationships, and many families and carers feel unprepared to navigate them.

As part of PhD research at the University of Waikato, families and carers across Aotearoa New Zealand are invited to complete a national survey about driving cessation decision-making for older people with memory loss or cognitive impairment.

You may be eligible if you are supporting, or have supported, an older person with memory loss or cognitive impairment who is still driving or has recently stopped driving.

Based on the above eligibility criteria please participate; also, please feel welcome to send this invitation to anyone you know who may be eligible.

Thank you for supporting this research.
