Intervention mapping was a useful approach to systematically develop an intervention tailored to the rehabilitation hospital context to complement existing driver rehabilitation. The feasibility and effectiveness of the simulator programme developed in this study will be evaluated in future studies.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONWe were able to gather important information and provide recommendations to tailor a new driving simulator intervention for individuals with acquired brain injury within a rehabilitation service.The processes and methods described provide researchers and clinicians with a systematic process for the selection of driving simulator intervention components and delivery.This investigation can be used to educate rehabilitation clinicians and technicians to improve driver training and delivery to acquired brain injury survivors.
