Scottish AHP Chronic Pain Management Network

In early 2016 a Scottish AHP Chronic Pain Management Network was formed from physiotherapists and occupational therapists working within chronic pain services throughout Scotland.  Following visits to local services in 2015 it was identified that many AHP’s working within pain services were quite isolated from other AHP’s working within pain services.  The aim of the network was to provide peer support alongside sharing and standardising best practice.  Four areas of work have now been established and the network plan to meet twice a year.

The initial event was featured by the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy in June 2016 and followed up in December 2016. http://www.csp.org.uk/news/2016/06/10/scotlands-pain-management-physios-create-link-ots
