San Camillo's Driving Simulator Initiative Boosts Road Safety and Independence

A pioneering initiative at San Camillo healthcare facility is helping individuals maintain or regain their driving abilities, promoting road safety and independence. The unique program, a collaboration between San Camillo and Specchio dei tempi Foundation, uses an immersive driving simulator to assess and improve driving skills.

The initiative caters to a wide range of individuals, including those with neurological diseases like Parkinson's, stroke, multiple sclerosis, and peripheral neuropathy, as well as those with neurodegenerative and cognitive pathologies. It also supports people facing age-related challenges such as decreased vision or slowed reflexes that can compromise driving safety.

The immersive driving simulator allows participants to test their driving abilities in a safe, controlled environment. Whether they wish to return to driving following a medical condition or simply want to assess their skills, the simulator provides a valuable tool. San Camillo, renowned for its excellence in neuro-motor rehabilitation, leads the initiative, with the Specchio dei tempi Foundation making the purchase of the simulator possible.

The immersive driving simulator initiative at San Camillo is a significant step towards supporting individuals in maintaining or regaining their driving abilities. By promoting road safety and personal independence, the program benefits not only the participants but also the wider community.
