Background and Challenges
Chronic Pain is Challenging to Manage
You need the correct tools!
Consultations with patients who experience chronic pain can be challenging.
Pain is often difficult to manage with the tools available to us and these tools have drawbacks: pain medication often produces side effects, tolerance, and has risks of addition, sedation and overuse; talking therapies and cognitive behavioural approaches are often unavailable or have a long waiting list.
This course was designed to give you the tools and techniques to make consulting with patients who experience chronic pain easier and less difficult.
In this two-hour webinar, you will learn communication techniques that can engage patients, techniques for discussing analgesia regimes and medication adjustment, and you will learn simple but effective strategies that will help patients to achieve a degree of control over their pain.
As part of the course you have access to a patient guide that provides information and techniques that your patient can implement straight away and can allow patients to understand how pain works and how if can be managed with drug and non-drug methods.
The course is run as a live, interactive webinar but is available on-demand after the event and includes free updates for life once purchased.
