OLSON CENTER BROWN BAG LECTURE - Opioids & Pain Medicine

When Opioids and Pain Medicine Interventions 
are not working (as well)

Chronic pain has resulted in significant impact on our nation. The general population has demanded pain relief while being frightened by the problems and death rates related to long-term opioid use. The medical profession has been divided at the ground level regarding the best strategies to address this issue; being polarized by the strategies of opioid/ narcotic abstinence and traditional allopathic solutions including the utilization of alternate medications and/ or the use of pain medicine surgical interventions. Medical, Nursing, Occupational, Rehabilitation Professionals, as well as the general public are regularly challenged by these issues. Join us at the next Brown Bag to hear an introduction to the non-pharmaceutical and non-surgical treatment of chronic pain. Presented by: Giuseppe (Joe) Siracusano, DPT, MA, BSPT - Nebraska Medicine Pain Management Program.

Seating is limited; please pre-register by calling the Olson Center at 559-6345.  Bring your lunch.  Simple refreshments will be provided.

The lectures are free, however if you would like to obtain nursing credit, the cost is $10.00.  Payment instructions will be given when you pre-register.
