In Office Cognitive Driving Assessment (DCAT™) PDF Print

The implications and the consequences of accurately determining competence to drive are enormous. Addressing a public safety issue and also protecting a person's independence and mobility are at stake. Medical diagnosis and clinical judgment are poor and unreliable predictors for such an important matter.

 

DCAT™ is one of the only scientifically validated driving assessment tools world-wide for evaluating medically at-risk drivers. It has been proven through research to be highly predictive of actual driving performance. 

Assessing a possibly impaired driver using DriveABLE software DCAT

  • DCAT™ is easy to administer; assessments take 30-60 minutes.
  • Results measuring memory, attention, reaction time and judgment are assessed in a non-threatening manner using touch screen and push button responses.
  • The age-normed performance scores on the tasks are presented in a comprehensive, easy to read table format report.
  • DCAT™ is administered by healthcare professionals and certified evaluators specially trained by DriveABLE™.
  • When further on-road testing is recommended, a specialized science based on-road assessment has been developed (DORE).

 

DCAT™ adds science to evidence-based practice, it is designed to be adaptable and interactive with other patient or staff treatment programs, and is appropriate for the Medical community, Government Licensing Agencies, Insurance companies and Fleet Managers.

Developed through science, DCAT™ is an objective tool that provides clarity to a difficult and growing problem. For further information on the DCAT™ please contact us or call us toll free at 1-877-433-1494.
