This far-reaching level of collaboration provides a strong foundation at both the professional and consumer levels to increase employment opportunities for individuals living in chronic pain and to provide valuable stakeholder input. A palliative care team works with clients with non-terminal chronic conditions to provide non-medical interventions found to contribute to the control of pain and improve their quality of life. This project utilizes teams to identify individuals, develop interventions and provide training to health care professionals as well as human service and employment staff regarding the ability for individuals with disabilities to re-enter the workforce.
