Every Thursday, from 12:00pm-1:30pm (MT). For more information contact us at: painECHO@salud.unm.edu.
The goal of this program is to provide comprehensive pain education to healthcare professionals, including pain assessment, non-pharmacological, pharmacological and interventional approaches, and addiction and overdose prevention.
A multidisciplinary team comprised of physicians, addiction medicine and behavioral health providers, chiropractors, and physical therapists models a team approach to pain assessment and management. Sessions are devoted to evidence-based approaches to pain management, and include a didactic and one to two case presentations. As time permits, the team offers "curbside consultations" for participants' pressing questions.
