Bridging Pain Service

Bridging Pain Services supports families and youth experiencing pain with the goal of bridging the gap between the acute and chronic pain services.

The goals of the BPS include:

• Reducing the risk of children developing chronic pain
• Ensuring the continuance of pain care and close follow up after hospital discharge to provide:
• Appropriate analgesia management including opioid stewardship
• Access to education and resources for self-management techniques, and support coordination where required with the multidisciplinary team
