Airing Pain

147: Person-Centred Care


Listen Later

This episode of Airing Pain focuses on person-centred care. Person-centred care is based on the individual rather than on a generic group of patients.  

In this episode: 
  • Vicky Sandy-Davis, Lead Nurse of Independent Health and Social Care, talks about the importance of recognizing the value of person-centred care, specifically for people with intellectual or learning disabilities 

  • Ian Taverner and Sarah Harrisson discuss the importance of involving people living with chronic pain in research studies so that researchers can be guided by those with experience of chronic pain 

  • Professor Nicole Tang and Jenna Gillett share findings from their research on mental defeat.  For people living with chronic pain, mental defeat can be a way of characterizing how the pain impacts a person's perceived loss of autonomy which can lead to a loss of identity when experiencing repeated episodes of pain.  

The interviews were recorded at the British Pain Society’s Annual Scientific Meeting, 2024.
