Article Abstract
This study describes factors influencing occupational therapists' implementation of mobile applications into driving rehabilitation post-stroke. A qualitative descriptive design was used to analyze interview data from twenty ( = 20) occupational therapists working in stroke rehabilitation. Key factors include awareness of emerging applications, workplace technology policies, patient impairment levels and technological proficiency, and the involvement of caregivers in patient training. The ability to observe cognitive-perceptual abilities when utilizing mobile applications provided key insights into patient progress. Further investigation is necessary to explore methods for remotely monitoring outcomes in driving rehabilitation.
