Pain BC Conference: November 2

Pain BC’s Annual Interdisciplinary Pain Conference will be held November 2nd, 2013 in Burnaby, BC.  Presenters will share best practice approaches, emerging research, and interactive discussion on how participants may apply the learning in the context of their practice.  These sessions are ideally suited to nurses, occupational therapists, RMTs, physiotherapists, counsellors, physicians, and other frontline practitioners who wish to acquire the latest knowledge and tools to most effectively understand and manage their patients’ pain.

This conference recognizes that nothing affects patients’ well being more than pain; whether living with a chronic condition (like arthritis, heart disease, or cancer), suffering with an illness like fibromyalgia or Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, or recovering from injury or surgery, persistent pain is the common element with the single greatest impact on quality of life.
