Improving Pain in Saskatchewan Study: Solutions-focused storytelling
to promote people-centered care: challenging stigma with chronic pain and
substance use through graphic medicine.
SaskPain supports The Improving Pain in Saskatchewan (IPSK)
research project. The team recently wrapped up the final phase of their
work funded by the Saskatchewan Health Research Foundation,
Saskatchewan Centre for Patient Oriented Research, and Saskatchewan
Community Initiatives Fund. Phase 1 results of the study informed the
Saskatchewan Health Authority Chronic Pain Provincial Clinical Network
application and action planning. Phase 2 and 3 involved development,
implementation, and evaluation of change strategies selected by
working groups in three communities.
Please note - presentation will be recorded.
