 Stroke patients who develop severe hemiplegia and unilateral spatial neglect (USN) due to extensive right hemisphere damage need to be able to safely operate a wheelchair by themselves. However, this can be difficult. In this report, we devised “visual attention exercises (VAE)”, which were composed of leftward search tasks, reading tasks, and right-left alternating tasks, and “wheelchair driving skill exercises (WDSE)”, which were specifically designed for patients with USN. The two sets of exercises were initially performed separately, but were subsequently combined after the subject was able to complete each exercise. As a result, a patient with severe USN was able to safely operate a wheelchair independently. We describe the use of these gradual VAE and WDSE programs and occupational therapy progress in a typical case of severe USN.
