Chronic Pain Management Program

Description: Our Occupational Therapist and Pharmacist provide education and intervention to individuals living with chronic pain to improve self-management of their condition.  Responsible management of medications, education regarding non-medical alternatives, and dietary modifications are intervention strategies.  Key in assisting individuals living with chronic pain is the ability to apply strategies within their daily living routines that improve functioning and quality of life.

Services and Activities offered as part of this program:

• Occupational Therapy Individualized Intervention: within an occupational framework, the Occupational Therapist evaluates chronic pain impacts to functions of daily living, and provides education and intervention to assist the patient to set goals promoting optimized quality of life and functioning.
• Pharmaceutical Medication Review: pharmacist will assess patient’s medications for appropriateness and recommend alternative pain management strategies. An opioid treatment agreement will also be reviewed and urine screen completed, if necessary.
