Chronic pain in Canada : laying a foundation for action.: H134-5/2019E-PDF
"The present report reflects the current state of pain care, education, and research in Canada. It tells us pain is a stigmatized and still invalidated condition, health care professionals still lack the knowledge and skills to treat pain, specialized pain services are largely not accessible, and research findings are not always being used to improve care. Improvement efforts are fragmented and hampered by lack of coordination and funding. We hope this report will ignite a commitment to change"--page 5.
