Development of a support program for elderly drivers and family

在我们项目的模型区，老年司机倾向于认识到“安全驾驶年龄”大约比他们的实际年龄大7岁。当地居民、福利志愿者和护理经理批评认知功能恶化的老年人开车，但考虑到老年人的实际生活条件，他们确实同情老年人开车的需要。通过分析示范区的态度调查和国外的同类调查，我们在小册子中介绍了适应当地特点的可用社会资源、认知功能减退老年人的驾驶戒烟过程以及对老年人的家庭支持。我们将副本分发给社区综合支持中心，这些中心充当咨询柜台，并将其发布在我们的网页上。

In the model area of our project, elderly drivers tended to recognize the 'safe driving age' to be approximately seven years older than their actual age. Local inhabitants, welfare volunteers and care managers were critical of driving by the elderly with deteriorated cognitive functions, while they did empathize with the elderly's need to drive considering the actual conditions of their lives. By analyzing the attitude survey in the model area and the similar surveys conducted abroad, we presented the available social resources adapted to local characteristics, driving cessation process of the elderly with deteriorated cognitive functions, and the family support for the elderly in a pamphlet. We distributed the copies to the community general support centers, which function as consultation counters, and released it on our web page as well.
