Pain Concern is offering an online (ZOOM) course for carer’s. The course provides an opportunity for carers to further their understanding of chronic pain, build skills and gain insights in the self-management approach to health.

The aim is to help carers to deliver pain management to the person they care for.

Importantly it is also an opportunity to feel more supported and apply self-management to the carer thereby helping carers to care for themselves.
