The Faculty of Pain Medicine is pleased to announce the publication of a Four Nation Strategy for Pain Management which has been developed with a range of patient and professional organisations. This framework integrates pain management across other stakeholder sectors of health and social care and aims to help coordinate, delivery and further develop care using resources and pathways already available.

“The Four Nation Strategy for Pain Management is patient focused from point of first contact including, self-help signposting, personalised care and shared decision making. It includes opportunities for health prevention and health promotion, social care, support to live with pain and support networks for those living in pain.”
