Pain BC is proud to partner with BC Children’s Hospital on Partnering for Pediatric Pain, a one-day virtual symposium on pain in pediatric hospital care on Friday, March 5th, 2021.
Held virtually for the first time, the third Partnering for Pediatric Pain symposium will feature presentations from leading pediatric pain specialists and health care providers from across Canada on a variety of topics related to managing acute and chronic complex pain in children and youth.
In addition to the presentations, the symposium will also include a panel discussion with youth living with chronic pain and their families on the impacts of untreated pain and ways to improve pain management and support. The panel will be moderated by Pain BC’s Director of Education, Jennifer Hanson, who is co-hosting the symposium with Dr. Gillian Lauder of the BCCH Complex Pain Clinic.
