Living with persistent pain can be very difficult, as it can affect all areas of your life. Would you like to attend a free veteran-specific pain management clinic to help you learn ways to manage your pain more effectively?
Following very good feedback from its first-ever virtual Pain Management Programme (PMP), King Edwards VII’s Hospital is able to offer more. The face-to-face programme has twice been rated as ‘outstanding’ by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
The virtual programme delivers the same content as the face-to-face version without the need to travel to or stay Virtual Veterans Pain Management Clinic in London.The Pain Management Programme will provide you with practical strategies to help you improve the quality of your life alongside your pain – managing physical activity and mood, for example, reviewing pain-related medications and helping you to understand your pain better in order to feel more confident and in control of the day- to-day management of your pain.
The programme runs for nine days spread over six weeks, with a follow-up after nine months. King Edward VII’s Hospital provides the assessment and treatment for free.
Spaces are limited and a GP referral, along with Proof of Service, will need to be submitted before an assessment can be offered. Successful applicants will need a laptop or tablet to take part in the virtual programme.
To apply for a place on the virtual Pain Management Programme please contact Caroline Dunne on 020 7467 4370 or by email at carolinedunne@kingedwardvii.co.uk
