BEHAVIORAL

APP-led model of care for chronic pain management

The APP will provide an assessment using a biopsychosocial approach. The assessment will include: * taking a comprehensive history * screening for pathologies contributing to the participant's chronic pain * a physical assessment * screening for comorbid health conditions, using the appropriate screening tools, that require specific care (e.g., depression, addiction, post-traumatic stress) * identifying psychosocial risk factors associated with pain and disability * evaluating pain severity and interference The APP will make recommendations to the participant and the chronic pain clinic health care team based on findings from the comprehensive assessment. These recommendations include, but are not limited to, the need for urgent or emergent referrals, medication management, referral and integration of other health care providers, the need for interventional procedures, or group-based treatment options.
