“Nurse practitioners play a critical role in the health of communities ... & have the potential to make a huge difference in the lives of people in Scarborough and the Eastern GTA.” - Our Dean, Linda Johnston on today's groundbreaking of SAMIH ➡️ https://t.co/gcWb2vcbwd
Pain is NEVER "just physical."
Pain is NEVER "just emotional."
Pain is always *both* physical AND emotional.
🌟Biopsychosocial, always.🌟

A great beginning to our #chronicpain partnership with @GrandCouncilT3, TPS, and @WCHIndigenous. Looking forward to improving chronic pain care for First Nations communities.
Key takeaways from today's session:
1⃣Opioid prescribing guidelines impact patients’ human rights
2⃣A multidisciplinary patient-centered approach is vital for harm reduction during hospital stay
3⃣Pain and addiction medicine services can co-exist to improve patient outcomes
Happy #NationalPhysiciansDay to all the doctors who work to provide the best possible care to their patients. We are especially grateful for our colleagues in the Department of Anesthesiology & Pain Medicine who make a profound impact on so many patients. Thank you!
