1 Pain management Quick reference guide to our services 1

2 The philosophy underpinning ACC s Pain Management s Pain is a unique experience that varies within the same person in terms of frequency, intensity and impact. Because of its subjective nature, the impact of pain can be defined only by the person suffering from it. Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage, or described in terms of such damage. Pain Definition - International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP). For clients reporting undue pain, assessment using the appropriate tools is the cornerstone of addressing their pain related factors. Early recognition, acknowledgement, accurate assessment and timely intervention can lead to a reduction in the risk of pain related disability, and to significant enhancement of the person s quality of life. A holistic approach, addressing physical, emotional, vocational and social need, and an active client participation in their own rehabilitation plan are essential to effective rehabilitation. In order to optimise rehabilitation outcomes for clients reporting undue pain, it is essential that we provide appropriate multimodal services for the purpose of maintaining and restoring the client s functionality. It is also vital that treatment and rehabilitation efforts are monitored for effectiveness in returning clients to work or independence.
