Power Over Pain

<p>This episode of the IASP-PRF Podcast highlights an emerging resource for adults and youths with the lived experience of pain called the <a href="https://poweroverpain.ca/">Power Over Pain Portal</a>. The Power Over Pain Portal works toward improving access to chronic pain care by providing access to free resources in a “one-stop shop,” including articles, videos, podcasts, courses, workshops, peer support, and even 24/7 one-on-one counseling – offered through <a href= "https://www.wellnesstogether.ca/en-ca/">Wellness Together Canada</a>. While initiated and designed by a consortium of researchers, clinicians, patient partners, hospitals, and institutions in Canada, the Power Over Pain Portal is freely available worldwide. In this episode, PRF spoke with developers of the Power Over Pain Portal to learn more about its initiation, resources, and plans for the future.</p> <p>Podcast participants include:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Lynn Cooper</strong>, Director of Research & Education – Canadian Injured Workers Alliance</li> <li><strong>Jennifer Stinson, RN-EC, PhD, CPNP, FAAN,</strong> SickKids, Toronto, Canada</li> <li><strong>Yaad Shergill, DC, MSc,</strong> The Ottawa Hospital Research Institute, and One Elephant Integrative Health Team Inc., Ontario, Canada</li> <li><strong>Gregory Carbonetti, PhD,</strong> IASP Associate Director of Publications (host)</li> </ul>
