Effective Prescribing of Opioids for Chronic Pain

from Pain Waves · host Pain Waves by Pain BC

Our understanding of opioids has changed dramatically in the past decade. The pendulum swing of policy guidelines and best practice has left many health care providers unsure how to best support patients with chronic pain. Pain Canada’s new program, Effective Prescribing of Opioids for Chronic Pain (EPOCH), aims to bridge that gap. This month on the Pain Waves podcast, we’re joined by Dr. Kathleen Doukas, a family physician, lecturer and a faculty member for this program.To learn more about EPOCH, visit: painbc.ca/health-professionals/education/epoch
