People w/ #ChronicPain may find the term "pain catastrophizing" to be stigmatizing. We need to take their perspectives seriously. Let's begin w/ people centered language & education for clinicians on people-centered communication #NPAW2024 #PrioritizePain

Our systems of care can be improved to help the 8M Canadians with pain to live better. This #NPAW2024, look at how far we have come in the implementation of @GovCanHealth’s Action Plan for Pain in Canada and how far we still need to go. https://t.co/rWCey3Vjqy

[COPE II Study @cope_study]

It’s #NPAW2024. How we speak about and define #ChronicPain shapes how we come to know it, including in negative ways. We argue that stigmatizing terms like “pain catastrophizing” should be replaced by terms developed with and by #PWLE

[COPE II Study @cope_study]

Experiences of #ChronicPain are deeply gendered. Yet, there is insufficient understanding of how #pain experience & treatment are informed by gender & amplify gendered vulnerabilities. We call for care that is gender-and-trauma informed. #NPAW2024

[Chronic Pain Network @cpn_rdc]

Gender biases in our health care system often result in girls’ and women’s pain being overlooked and undertreated, but work is being done to change this. This #NPAW2024, track the work being done to create equitable access to pain care here: https://t.co/6Ni3WG9HPO

[Chronic Pain Network @cpn_rdc]

First Nations youth often express their pain in ways beyond words. This study highlights the importance of using culturally safe and relevant methods, like Talking Circles and art, to assess and understand their pain. Learn more: https://t.co/iAOqSnMOuf

[Chronic Pain Network @cpn_rdc]

Indigenous peoples are disproportionately impacted by chronic pain and face many barriers to appropriate care. @GovCanHealth’s Action Plan for Pain in Canada calls for culturally safe care to address this inequity. Track its progress here: https://t.co/6Ni3WG9HPO #NPAW2024

[COPE II Study @cope_study]

People living with #ChronicPain & poverty face barriers & inequities when it comes to managing their #pain. We offer the concept of "chronic struggle" to capture the work that goes into managing pain within such contexts. #NPAW2024 #PrioritizePain

Ont's #health system falls short for #disabled youth

Turning 18 should be a party, but for youth w/disabilities it's often described as falling off a cliff

Thrust from a coordinated system of care into a disjointed system not designed for them.

Today, we're wearing orange to honour the Indigenous children and families affected by residential schools in Canada - a colonial system that left generational scars on the Indigenous community.
