Abstract
Chronic pain is a national crisis requiring a multidisciplinary approach to engage patients in their care planning and treatment execution. The current biomedical model of pain care is inadequate due to the subjective and qualitative nature of pain. Current literature supports a biopsychosocial approach, empowering patients to explore self-care to enhance activities of daily living. Pain Coping Skills Training (PCST) delivers real-life strategies that improve quality of life and strengthen self-efficacy, which has been identified as a patient outcome measure that demonstrates improvement in patient-perceived function and quality of life despite pain intensity.
