This website is for people living in the Vancouver Island Health Authority region who are experiencing severe chronic pain that is resistant to treatment, and for the people who support them.
Pain Program
We treat patients who suffer from non-surgical pain that is not managed by conventional methods. We have clinical centres at the Royal Jubilee Hospital and at the Nanaimo Regional General Hospital. The Comox Valley Nursing Centre also provides chronic pain management support. > Learn more about the program.
Managing Pain
We believe pain relief requires individualized treatment of Total Pain: physical, psychological, social, and spiritual. To do this, we work with patients and their families to explore options that maximize their quality of life and overall function. > Learn more about Pain Management.
