Program Overview
Healthcare professionals, including pharmacists, are often barriers to improving pain management of their patients primarily because of their lack of pain-management education and their unfounded fears and biases. Women are more likely than men to experience bias in treatment. Optimizing pain relief is crucial to helping a patient regain control of his or her life. Because pharmacotherapy plays a prominent role in treating chronic pain, it is also a perfect opportunity for the pharmacist to be involved. This program will satisfy the education need by creating a program for pharmacists that will enhance their understanding of chronic pain, identify the gender gap, pharmacotherapy, counseling points and information needed to work with the patient to reduce pain and improve quality of life.
